You won't be able to use Javascript in a PDF file to generate the QR Code. You can create the QR code as an image and embed the image in the document though.

I've used the https://github.com/zxing/zxing java library to do this

Oh so that's a much more specific requirement. Looks like this Java library will do it but I've not used it https://github.com/manuelbl/SwissQRBill

If you use cfhtmltopdf tag it does support some javascript, but using the java library might be a more resilient solution long term - good idea to use base64 encoded image as well.
