I am trying to generate a pdf using cfhtmltopdf with a QR code in it. My code displays the QR code without the cfhtmltopdf tag however when I add the tag the page is blank. I am using the jquery from https://www.jqueryscript.net/other/Canvas-Table-QR-Code-Generator.html to create the QR code. I have tried copying all the actual scripts into the tag instead of links and that didn't help.
Looking for a solution - I'm open to a different method of generating the QR code if that works.
Thanks in advance...

$('#qrcodeCanvas').qrcode({

});

I just found this code here: https://github.com/mohokh67/ColdFusion-QR-code-in-PDF
I get "Could not find the CF component or interface qrJavaLoader.JavaLoader" when I try to use the code. I have 0 experience working with cfc files and javaloader. Any direction on where to put these files etc. would be appreciated.
<cfset paths = arrayNew(1)>
<cfset paths[1] = expandPath("qrCore.jar")>
<cfset loader = createObject("component","qrJavaLoader.JavaLoader").init(paths)>
<cfset BarcodeFormat = loader.create('com.google.zxing.BarcodeFormat')>
<cfset QRCodeWriter = loader.create('com.google.zxing.qrcode.QRCodeWriter').init()>
<cfset MatrixToImageWriter = loader.create('com.google.zxing.client.j2se.MatrixToImageWriter')>
<cfset QRText="Created at " & dateTimeFormat(NOW(), 'yyyy-mm-dd HH:nn:ss') & " by https://github.com/mohokh67">
