Hi,

Would you be interested to add a Dutch DHL label?

I added an example PDF.
[removed document]

Kind regards,

First of all: GREAT WORK!!!
Having the opportunity to use my 62mm Printers for big shipping labels ist awesome!

But me and a whole lot of other people, I guess, need to print out labels for shipping company other then those implemented in Your Tool already.
Like most people I'm a total noob in programming.

As far as I understand, Your tool does the following steps:

1. Read "original pdf label"
2. convert "original pdf label" to image
3. cut out pieces of the image
4. create a blank label (59 mm x n mm)
5. arrange the pieces on the new blank label
6. convert the new label to pdf

The cut sizes and positions are set in the "labels.js".
For additional labels the labels.js has to be modified.

Could You please make a short tutorial on how to modify the "labels.js" for new label.

This would make this little tool universal an applicable world wide!

Hi and thank you very much for this great project!

I tried using the "offline" version just like you describe it in the readme.md -> just open the index.html in the browser.
This does not work like this anymore in actual browsers, the following error message is thrown for example in Chrome for all js files:
Access to script at 'file:///C:/assets/index.bf17cde9.js' from origin 'null' has been blocked by CORS policy: Cross origin requests are only supported for protocol schemes: http, data, isolated-app, chrome-extension, chrome, https, chrome-untrusted.

In former times, it was no problem to simply load local files in the web browsers, but this had some security issues as noted here:
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2019-21/#CVE-2019-11730
Therefore the handling in all relevant browsers was changed so trying to load local files now produces CORS errors.
For more info, please refer to this message: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CORS/Errors/CORSRequestNotHttp

A very simple possibility to use as a workaround is to open a simple python HTTP server in the directory where the index.html is located.
This is an easy thing described here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/Common_questions/Tools_and_setup/set_up_a_local_testing_server

Long story short: Install python3, then navigate to the directory where index.html is using cd and then call
python3 -m http.server or python -m http.server. A local http server is now opened at port 8000 (standard port, can be customized).
Then the website can then be opened via webbrowser.

I think, it could help users (especially them with a more or less "basic" IT knowledge) if you would refer to this circumstances in the readme and maybe extend the description with the python http server example, if you like it.

Best regards,
Chris

Some proper CSS and structure would be nice I think.

Site is getting too messy, components would be nice

Add command line interface for scripting.

Planned after #2.

When you try to load the project from a link like: domain.tld/folder, some links won't work.

It is because some links look like this:<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="180x180" href="/icons/apple-touch-icon.png" />
The "/" at the beginning refers to the root of the server, where it isn't at the moment. Removing it will use the current folder as the root.

currently the 62mm is hardcoded, i have a 88mm printer, i would like to scale up the labels to 88mm
e.g. DHL would be 62mm -> 88mm (x1,41)
