The actual question people ask

Wrong stored size is why labels cut off or skip. Measure the stock, set that width × height first, then place type. In this editor that is the label-size control — not a Windows paper dialog. Open the free maker · label maker hub.

Honest scope: Windows “Letter” plus a 2×1 design is how half-labels happen.

Steps that match the query

Designer users

In ZebraDesigner, page setup / stock size is the same idea. If Designer fights you, set the size here and print via Browser Print.

Batch from Excel or Google Sheets

Map column tokens into text, barcodes, or QR. Paste CSV, upload a file, or load a published Google Sheet. Preview rows, then print quantity 1 before the stack. Guide: mail merge · CSV mail merge.

Print or export

Zebra thermal: Browser Print at the printer’s DPI. Everyone else: Options → PNG, JPEG, SVG, PDF, or ZPL. JSON saves the editable master.
