From the file the platform handed you to a label coming out of the printer.

Drop the file
Drag in the .txt, .zpl or .zip you downloaded. Pasting the code works too, and so does dropping a PDF or a photo of a label.

Where the file comes from

Where did your file come from? Every platform hides the download somewhere else.

These are the usual paths to the thermal file.

They all end here

^XA … ^XZ

Five different routes, one file. Drop it exactly as it downloaded — a sealed .zip, a batched .txt or a PDF — and the rest is the same.

Guides

Every row above links to that platform's guide: where the download lives, what is inside the file, and how to print it with or without a Zebra.

Platform not on the list? No problem: any .zpl, .txt or .prn holding ^XA…^XZ opens the same way, and images or PDFs become labels down the same path.

Shopee, Mercado Livre, Magalu, Olist Tiny and Correios are trademarks of their owners, named here only so you can recognise where your file came from. We are not affiliated with any of them.

Comparison

Why everyone else counts your conversions. Because they convert on their servers — and servers cost money.

Ours runs on your own computer. That is why it can be genuinely free, with no counter, and why the file never has to leave the machine.

Free for everyday shipping. Paid only once the volume shows up.

Formats and fidelity

What goes in, what comes out. And what we don't do yet.

We render ZPL II to a 1-bit bitmap the same way the printer does: no antialiasing, no grey. What you see on screen is what lands on the paper.

Input: .txt, .zpl, .prn, .zip, .pdf, .png, .jpg
Output: PDF, PNG, ZIP of PNGs, ZPL
Densities: 6, 8, 12 and 24 dpmm (152 to 600 dpi)
Barcodes: Code 128, Code 39, EAN, Interleaved 2/5, QR, Datamatrix, PDF417
Commands: 110+ recognised, an on-screen warning for the rest

10 cm · 812 dots

15 cm · 1218 dots

What we don't do yet

Proprietary fonts stored in the printer's memory are swapped for equivalents.
Hardware commands (calibration, cutter, sensors) are accepted and ignored — they don't change the image.
Even on Pro, past 500 labels per batch you have to split the file: browser memory is the limit.

Privacy and LGPD

A customer's address is not data to spread around

A shipping label carries your buyer's name, address and phone number. Because the conversion happens in your browser, that data never reaches us — there is nothing to leak, to store, or to ask us to delete.

The same engine, as a library or an API

The renderer running in your browser right now, packaged for your backend — with Labelary-compatible routes so migrating is a URL change. Not public yet; when it ships, the key comes with Pro.

Before you convert

Frequently asked questions.

Is it really free? Then where does the paid plan come in?

Converting is free: no daily counter, no watermark, no signup. Since nothing is processed on our servers, there is no per-label cost to pass on to you. Pro is there for volume — it takes the batch from 5 to 500 labels per conversion, which is what matters once you ship by the hundred.

Do I need an account?

Not to convert: the free plan works with no signup and no email. An account is only needed to subscribe to Pro, because that is what holds the subscription — the contents of your labels still never leave the browser.

Can I cancel Pro whenever I want?

You can. Billing is monthly, with no lock-in and no cancellation fee: you cancel, you drop back to the free plan, and nothing you already downloaded goes away.

I don't know what ZPL is. Is this still for me?

It is — and you don't need to know. If the file from the marketplace opens as a wall of strange code starting with ^XA, that's ZPL. Drop the file here and take the PDF.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes, including with a file that arrived over WhatsApp. Tap the intake area, pick the file, then share or save the PDF.

Do I need a Zebra printer?

No. The PDF comes out at the right size for a 10×15 cm thermal label and prints on plain A4 too, if that's what you have. When printing, use 100% scale so the barcode stays scannable.

Can I turn a PDF back into ZPL?

Yes. Drop the PDF or a photo of the label and we hand back ZPL with the image dithered to 1-bit, ready to send to the printer.
