Upload menu photos or a PDF, paste a public URL, or add items manually. Choose a template or write an AI prompt to start your design.
Use the local editor for layout and downloads. Add an AI-generated background only when you want it and the service is available.
Upload menu photos or a PDF, paste a public HTTPS menu URL, or enter items manually. Review imported categories, dishes and prices before designing.
Start with a menu template for a ready-made layout and color palette. Build a local editable preview without using AI credits.
Use a template as a style direction or write a custom prompt for an AI background. Generation requires sign-in, availability and a confirmed credit quote; a prompt does not change the local preview.
Edit names, prices, descriptions and categories in the editor. AI artwork is a background, not a replacement for your editable menu text.
Upload your own logo, adjust the design and choose a paper size. Check the layout and each page before printing.
Export PDF, SVG, JPG or PNG from the local editor without credits. PDF is a raster PDF of all pages; SVG preserves menu text as text. SVG, JPG and PNG export the current page.
MenuForma also offers multilingual online menus, translation tools, QR codes and ordering. These are separate platform capabilities, with their own setup and plan requirements; this designer does not automatically translate your entire menu or activate them when you export.
You can add menu items, choose a template, edit a local preview and export without signing in. Drafts are saved on this device when browser storage is available, not as a cross-device cloud backup. Use this page’s Sign In or Get Started Free button to transfer your guest draft to your account on this device. If saving or transfer fails, you can stay and retry or explicitly continue without the draft. AI background generation requires sign-in.
Local template previews, editing and PDF, SVG, JPG or PNG exports do not use credits. AI background generation uses credits and requires a confirmed quote before you proceed, when generation is available. New free accounts receive 30 welcome AI credits, subject to the existing account rules; they expire 30 days from the grant. Signing in to an existing account does not grant another welcome allowance. AI generation is not promised to be permanently free.
Upload a menu photo or PDF, or paste a publicly accessible HTTPS menu URL. You can also add items manually. Private or sign-in-only links are not supported. Recognition can miss content or misread prices, so review and correct the imported items before exporting.
Download PDF, SVG, JPG or PNG. Your text and logo remain editable in the MenuForma editor, separate from any AI background. SVG preserves menu text as text, but the background artwork is a raster image. PDF is a raster PDF, not an editable-text PDF. PDF, JPG and PNG exports are flattened images, not fully editable design files. Keep your local editable draft if you want to revise the menu later.
Long menus can span multiple pages in the editor. Review every page for readable text, spacing and correct prices; long text may be compressed to fit, so shorten descriptions or adjust the layout where needed. PDF includes all pages. SVG, JPG and PNG download only the current page, so export each page separately in those formats.
Yes. Upload a PNG, JPG or WebP logo to display it in your menu preview. You can replace or remove the logo, change the paper size and adjust the design before exporting. Some sizes or orientations may not be available for AI background generation even though they work for local preview and export; follow the options and notices shown in the designer.
No. This tool creates menu design files; previewing or exporting does not publish a live QR menu, create a QR code or enable orders. MenuForma’s online menus, QR codes and ordering are separate platform features that you configure for your restaurant. Online menu changes can appear without reprinting a QR code, but changes to a printed menu design require a new export and reprint.
No. The design tool uses the menu text you provide. MenuForma offers multilingual online menus and translation tools as separate platform capabilities. Choose and review translations in that workflow; generating or exporting a design does not automatically translate every item or publish multilingual menus.
Start with a free local template preview and export. Optional AI backgrounds use credits; live QR menus and ordering are set up separately.
