How label sizes work
You choose a size in the Create label window, after you choose a Label type and a Paper size. The sizes in the Label size list depend on those two choices. For example, a QR code label on US Letter paper comes in seven sizes, and a barcode label on US Letter paper comes in two.
Each size is listed by width and height, such as Micro (1in x 1in). To make a label, see how to create a QR code or barcode label for an item. Not sure which paper size matches your printer? See what types of printers work with Sortly.
Choose a size for what you want to add
Every label shows the item's Sortly ID with its code. If you want to add more to a QR code label, you need a size that has room for it, because each option below works on certain sizes only.
To add more than one, choose a size that appears on each of those cards. For example, to add both a photo and a logo on US Letter or A4 sheets, choose Extra Large, the only size on both cards.
US Letter sheets
