I don't think that's the case for fedex. If you have a fedex account it's pretty easy to figure out. If your account # is in the tracking number then it is, otherwise it's not.

For UPS the 6 characters after 1Z is the shipper's account #

I use stamps.com for postage, and anytime I try to print a shipping label to a PDF file (like in the case of returns) I get an error message saying something like "USPS regulations prohibit printing shipping labels to PDF files."

I can see why they do it. It would be easy enough to recycle the same shipping label hundreds of time. How do you do it, OP?

Its in adobe when i print it asks me what printer in the list of printers it gives option to print to pdf then makes a pdf file .. once the the tracking number has been accepted at post office a copied label will NOT scan into system with exact same barcode shows duplicate error . I messed up once by mistake printed the label twice . the first one scanned in second one didnt .I just see all kinds of stuff can be hidden in pdfs wasnt sure about Purifying the pdf as i would a pic would clean all possibilities of becons meta data and other hidden eb goodies lol .

Like I said above (other than FBA), just use a 3rd party shipping service like Shipstation.
