Below you will find what the tool reads in your PDF, the exact steps, and the packing situations where it saves time. It is a one-button tool with no options to set.
What Flipkart FBF box label crop does
The tool opens each page of the FBF box label PDF, finds the boxes drawn around the labels and cuts each one out onto a page of its own. You get a single PDF with the labels one after another, with the label and the info part separated.
Processing happens on the server. The cropped file is listed under Processed files for 30 minutes.
- Each box label on its own page, for 4x6 printing.
- The empty space around the labels is left out.
- Consignments with many cartons are handled in one file.
- More than one PDF can be uploaded together.
- No settings panel in the tool: upload and press Proceed.
How to use it
Adding the file is open to everyone. When you press the crop button you are asked to sign in with Google, which takes one click.
- Download the box label PDF of your FBF consignment from your Flipkart seller account.
- Open the Flipkart FBF box label crop page and add the PDF.
- Wait for the upload to complete.
- Press Proceed and sign in with Google if asked.
- Wait for the process to complete, then download the file from Processed files.
- Print on 4x6 labels and stick one on each carton.
How it helps Flipkart FBF sellers
An FBF consignment can have many cartons, and each one needs its label on the outside. When the labels sit on full pages with empty space around them, a thermal printer cannot use them as they are. The crop removes that manual step.
If you sell on Flipkart both ways, from your own warehouse and through FBF, you can keep one routine. Daily order labels go through the Flipkart label crop, consignment box labels go through this page, and both print on the same 4x6 printer.
- Consignment dispatch: crop all box labels before the pickup and label the cartons in sequence.
- Thermal printer only setups: no need to keep an A4 printer just for box labels.
- Warehouse staff: one upload and one button, so anyone at the packing table can do it.
- Selling on Amazon too: the Amazon FBA box label crop works the same way for FBA shipments.
Tips for a clean result
The tool finds the labels by the outlines drawn inside the PDF. That only works on the original file.
- Use the PDF exactly as downloaded from Flipkart. A scan, photo or screenshot saved as PDF has no outlines to detect.
- Compare the page count of the result with the number of labels you expect before printing.
- Download the result soon, while it is still in the Processed files list.
- Print at actual size on 4x6 labels and test one label first.
Common questions
Will it work on a scanned box label?
It is not made for that. The tool reads the label outlines inside the original PDF, so use the file you downloaded from Flipkart.
Do I need to sign in?
Not to add a file. A free Google sign-in is asked when you press the crop button. Free accounts have a monthly allowance, and Premium removes the limit and the ads.
Is this the same as the Flipkart label crop?
No. The Flipkart label crop is for daily order shipping labels and has sorting and invoice settings. This page is only for FBF box labels and has no settings.
