Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about ZPL conversion and LabelZoom.

Our engine uses advanced layout analysis and optical character recognition (OCR) to inspect the contents of your PDF or image file. It identifies text blocks, barcodes, lines, and boxes, and then intelligently translates those elements into raw, highly-optimized Zebra Programming Language (ZPL) commands rather than just sending a massive base64 image block.
