About our labels
ReadyToShip provides labels in PDF format, that are generated directly by partner Carriers.
This means each PDF label is 100% the correct size.
Why could you be having problems?
If you have an issue with printing labels, such as:
Margins seem wrong
Label is printed too small/large
Label text isn't sharp
Part of the label is missing
This is a result of your computer's print settings. Either:
The Default Printer Preferences (paper size, orientation, margins etc) are incorrect, or
When printing the label using your browser Print Dialog box, you are applying some incorrect settings.
Make sure the printer is set to the right paper size and orientation
Most computers are dumb and don't know about the paper in your printer. You have to tell it:
How the paper is oriented (landscape or portrait)
What size the paper is - often it defaults to A4 (210mm X 297mm) when labels are typically A6 (105mm X 148mm) or smaller.
Do a test print
We can print to any printer your computer is connected to. The best way to test is to generate a PDF of a label and try to print it on the label printer. If it works, it should also work for printing from ReadyToShip.
