Automated barcode label generation and printing in Python

Project description

LabelPrint

Automated barcode label generation and printing in Python

Note: This package only works on Windows at the moment. With some minor rework, it could work on Linux too, that's just not a priority for my purposes at the moment.

Creating Labels

(More help coming soon)

Testing Labels

There are two ways to test your label layouts. You can write a simple Python script to generate a label, or you can add some code to your HTML file to import the script and create a preview when opened in your browser.

Printing Labels

Printing your label with labelprint is easy! Simply call label.printPDF.
