Print tracking info of Shopify orders

This article is a step-by-step guide to creating printable PDF documents displaying a Shopify order’s tracking info. After some initial setup, you’ll be able to quickly print out any order’s tracking info as many times as you need.

Create a template

1. Launch Axios Order Printer and navigate to the “Templates” menu.
2. Click “New template”. You’ll be prompted for a few setup options:

• Choose a starter template: Select “Start from scratch”.
• Will you use this template with orders, fulfillments, or line items? Select “Fulfillments”.
• Do you want the template to be paginated? Select “No”.
• What’s the size of your page? For this guide, you can just use the default size.

You will then be looking at the template editor. At first, it will be blank so you’ll need to add some content.

Add a tracking info element

From the menu of elements, drag and drop a Tracking Info element onto an area of the template.

Tracking info text or QR code

The tracking info can either be displayed as a QR code for easy scanning or plain text.

QR code

Click the element’s Settings button. In the dialog that appears, locate the Format setting and select “QR Code”. In the Data setting, you can configure which piece of the tracking info (number or url) to display as a QR code.

Text

Click the element’s Settings button. In the dialog that appears, locate the Data setting. You have the option of including the tracking info company, the tracking number, and the tracking info URL.

Now that we’re done with the template, all that’s left is to give it a name and then save it:

1. Enter a name for the template
2. Click “Save”

Generate a document with the template

Now let’s create a PDF document that shows an order’s tracking info.

From the dashboard, click “New document”.

1. Select one or more fulfillments from your orders.
2. Locate the Template option just above the “Create documents” button.
3. Select the template you created in the previous section.
4. Click “Create documents”.

Further steps

It’s possible to add additional elements to the template. You may want to include other order or fulfillment information as well.
