Sheetz Label Generator · by Kincaid Solutions

Every Build-To label, exactly where it belongs.

A desktop program that turns a list of items, barcodes and build-tos into a sheet of 21 labels. It prints them straight to your printer at actual size, or saves a PDF.

  • 3 × 7 labels · US Letter
  • Code 128 barcodes
  • Windows · Mac · Linux
  • Built in Rust

01 · The list

Type it like a list. Get a sheet.

Name, barcode, build-to, Enter. Every row shows the page and spot it will print in, so 1 · R2 C1 is the first label on the second row.

  • Fractions fix themselves: 1/2 becomes ½, and 2 1/2 becomes 2 ½.
  • Opens CSV lists and the old LibreOffice .odg sheets.
  • Ctrl-click and Shift-click to select, then duplicate, move or delete in one go. Ctrl+Z undoes anything.
The List view: a table of labels with page and spot, name, barcode and build-to, and fields to add a label

02 · The sheet

See the sheet. Edit the sheet.

The Sheet view draws the page exactly as it prints, with every label box outlined and numbered on a ¼ cm grid.

  • Click a label to change its text. Click an empty box to start a new label right there.
  • Add your own notes, like “Thaw 24 hrs” or “Use by ____”. Drag them into place, set size, bold and alignment.
  • One click copies a note to every label on the sheet.

03 · Print

Straight to the printer. At 100%.

Press Ctrl+P, pick the printer, copies and pages. Nothing gets shrunk to fit, so the labels land on the label stock.

  • On Windows it draws every letter and bar directly onto the printer page.
  • On Mac and Linux it goes through the system print service with scaling turned off.
  • Want a file instead? Save PDF makes a sheet of about 30 KB.
