Some shipping platforms only provide you with a full page (8.5" x 11") document.

Frequently, they use half of the page for the shipping label and the other half for receipt or packing slip.

While there are many ways to split this page into a 4" x 6" label size, here is our favorite method:

1."Take a Snapshot" 

2."Crop pages" -> Remove White Margins

Please see this article for Cropping multiple pages (Label Adjustments - Cropping multiple pages in the same document at once)

Download Adobe Reader for "Take a Snapshot" 

if you do not have it already from Adobe website (https://get.adobe.com).
