Want to print some of those symbols you see on boxes like the guy with a hand truck, the "this end up" arrow, the "Fragile" martini glass, "do not drop", etc to slap on my powerhead crate before handing off to UPS.<br /><br />Have been looking but have not found any. Even scanned clip art, etc. <br /><br />The "this end up" arrow and Fragile glass I can make in Paintbrush. But the others I can't.<br /><br />Any ideas?

They won't make any difference on how your package is handled. The only thing I would do is right "this end up" on the top with a marker. There's a reason why UPS keeps raising their insurance rates.

An easy solution is to make it where it will only sit flat on the side you want it to sit on.<br /><br />Ken

I tried searching "handle with care image" and found several pictures that I could download. It may take awhile, but you could probly find them all. Good Luck!!!

Hi Mark, Go to Google images, type in "fragile label", "handle with care label" etc. Lots there. Right-click and save. :)

Unless you actually want the images you can simply right the words on the package or print them onto a paper and tape to the package. I work in shipping so my advice to you is to make sure your packaging is secure and to insure the package. You should be able to purchase them from the UPS store if not check with Lablemaster or Accuform, I'm not sure maybe able to download the images from their sites.<br /> Labelmaster Accuform
