Crop Amazon FBA carton labels from 4x6 to 4x4

A freight-forwarding workflow needed to print Amazon FBA carton labels on smaller label stock. The downloaded PDF was around 4x6, but the useful carton-label content fit a 4x4 label after the blank lower area was removed.

Label paper mismatch
Crop SKU and Amazon FNSKU labels for small label paper

When exported SKU or FNSKU label PDFs do not match the label stock at the freight forwarder or prep warehouse, printing directly can split one label across two physical labels. Cropping the blank area first makes the label printable.

Before
One label can split across two labels
After
Cropped PDF fits small label stock

Extract tracking numbers from shipping label files

When a label batch is a multi-page PDF, a folder of images, or both, manually opening each label and copying the tracking number is slow. Shipping Label Scanner scans full-page labels, detects multiple barcodes, and lets you copy tracking numbers in one workflow.

Before
Open each PDF page or image, then copy manually
After
Batch scan labels and copy results
