Automatic pagination: The tool uses precise calculations to prevent blank pages and optimize label placement across all pages.

Why does my barcode show "Invalid barcode"?

Each barcode format has specific requirements for the characters and length it accepts. The tool validates your input to ensure it matches the selected format.

Format	Requirements	Example
CODE128	Any characters, any length	ABC-123-XYZ
EAN-13	Exactly 12 or 13 digits	5901234123457
UPC-A	Exactly 11 or 12 digits	012345678905
EAN-8	Exactly 7 or 8 digits	96385074
Code 39	Letters, numbers, some symbols	ABC-123
ITF-14	Exactly 14 digits	12345678901231

Quick fix: If you see an error, switch to CODE128 — it accepts any text and has no format restrictions.

Can I save my product data?

Yes. All product templates and settings are automatically saved to your browser's local storage. When you return to the tool, everything is restored exactly as you left it.

Customization settings (colors, fonts, borders)

Print configuration (paper size, margins, gaps)

Browser storage: Data is saved per browser. If you clear browser data or use a different browser, you'll need to recreate your templates.

How do I avoid blank pages when printing?

The tool uses precise page break calculations to prevent blank pages. If you still see blank pages, try these solutions:

Printer Settings

Set margins to "None" or "Minimum"

Paper Size

Match printer paper size to tool setting

Scale

Ensure print scale is set to 100%
