## Description

DawsonyWeb – Print Label Designer is a visual label designer for WooCommerce. Create
reusable layouts for dispatch addresses, product labels, picking lists and sticker
sheets. Use the order details already in your store, preview a label and download
a PDF ready to print at actual size.

#### Design once, use it again

 * Text, local Media Library images, rectangles, lines, QR codes and Code128/EAN
   barcodes.
 * WooCommerce order, shipping, billing, product, item and custom metadata bindings,
   with fallbacks and formatting.
 * Millimetres or inches, custom sizes, A4/Letter sheets and partially used sticker
   sheets.
 * Rotation, layers, undo/redo, duplication, alignment, optional grid and 1 mm snapping.
 * One label per order, line item or whole-number quantity, plus combined manual
   PDFs.
 * Template import/export, seven starter layouts, onboarding and a replayable designer
   tour.
 * HPOS and legacy order storage through WooCommerce CRUD.

#### Keep PDF generation on your own site

PDF generation runs locally. No external PDF service, CDN, analytics or licence 
key is required. Downloaded PDFs may contain personal information; store and share
them securely.

#### Optional automation with the separate Pro add-on

Optional Pro add-on: DawsonyWeb – Print Label Designer Pro is a separate plugin 
available from https://dawsony.com/plugins/dawsony-print-label-designer. It adds
order-event rules, background generation, private document history, retention controls
and dedicated email/manual print workflows. The Free plugin contains no licence-
gated features or Pro installer.

Dispatch-address layouts are not carrier postage labels. Batch and best-before fields
require configuration for your own product data. Printer transport is not included:
open and print the downloaded PDF yourself.

### Source code and build instructions

Editable JavaScript is included in resources/. Dependency lockfiles, BUILDING.txt
and PHP dependency build tools in tools/ are included. No private repository access
is needed to inspect or rebuild this plugin. Third-party notices are in THIRD-PARTY-
LICENSES.txt.

### External services and privacy

The Free plugin does not send analytics, licence checks or order data to dawsony.
com and does not load remote scripts, fonts or images. Links in its admin screens
open only when clicked. Templates remain in your WordPress database. Manual PDFs
are returned to your browser and are not retained by the Free plugin. Installing
the separate Pro add-on adds document storage and optional email workflows; see 
its own documentation.

## Installation

 1. Activate WooCommerce and enable PHP mbstring.
 2. Go to Plugins > Add New, search for DawsonyWeb – Print Label Designer, then install
    and activate it on an individual site.
 3. Open DawsonyWeb – Print Label Designer and choose a starter template.
 4. Select a preview order, adjust the design and save it.
 5. Generate a PDF and print at actual size / 100 percent. Test your printer and stock
    before printing a batch.

## FAQ

### Do I need Pro or a licence to design and print labels?

No. All functionality supplied in this Free plugin is available without a licence,
trial or payment.

### Can I print address labels or buy postage?

You can design dispatch and address labels using WooCommerce shipping details. The
plugin does not purchase postage, book carriers or generate carrier-approved shipping
labels.

### Can I use a thermal printer or A4 label sheets?

Yes. Set the label size to match your stock, or arrange labels on A4/Letter sheets
with margins and gaps. Print the PDF at actual size using your normal printer software.
Printer compatibility and borderless output depend on your printer and driver.

### Can I import and share templates?

Yes. Export a design as JSON and import it into the designer on another site. Free
sample templates and an import guide are linked above. Local image attachments may
need to be selected again on the destination site.

### Does it work with WooCommerce HPOS?

Yes. Orders are accessed through WooCommerce CRUD and both HPOS and legacy order
storage have been tested.

### Can I extend a coloured shape past the label edge?

Yes. A warning marks clipped elements but does not prevent output. Each label is
cropped separately on sheets. Keep barcodes and important text inside the printable
area. Borderless printing depends on your printer.

### What happens on uninstall?

Templates are retained by default. To remove all DawsonyWeb – Print Label Designer
data, including any retained Pro documents, explicitly set the printrelay_delete_data
option to 1 before uninstalling. Back up first. Network-wide activation is unsupported.

### What are the limits?

200 templates, 100 elements per template, pages from 10 to 500 mm, and up to 20 
orders / 100 labels per manual PDF. Whole-number quantities are required. PNG/JPEG/
WebP images must be local, under 10 MB and 20 megapixels; distinct images in a document
share a 20-megapixel budget. WebP requires GD. DejaVu Sans regular and bold are 
included. Text overflow stops generation to avoid silently losing content.

### Where can I find help?
