I do not bulk print labels from eBay. I save labels from eBay or PirateShip one at a time as PDF files in a dedicated folder on my Macintosh. I then print them two per page on 8.5" x 11" paper. Years ago a PDF of a eBay label would download as a 8.5" x 11" document with a single label on one side and a blank area on the other side for another label. I simply figured out the X and Y coordinates of each corner of the actual label in the PDF and created a Adobe Acrobat Pro Action to crop the label. The Acton would crop an entire folder of labels within a couple seconds. You could also likely do this with various other programs such as creating your own custom app using a compiler like Xojo. You might also be able to do this using AppleScipt or Automater on a Apple computers.
This has been happening to me this week. I even checked the 4 x 6 and it was set to that, so I'm not sure what happened. At any rate, if I went to shipping labels and selected to reprint the label, even though the batch was printing on 8.5 x 11 paper, the reprinted label was printing to 4 x 6 just fine.
Where were you last week? Kidding of course but I ended up repurchasing 3 sets of labels last week.
gem of a video! I've seen people explain much more complicated ways to do this.
Thanks, hope it is helpful.
