2.25 × 1 in labels

At 57 × 25 mm, this label is a little larger than a USB stick, with 2.25 square inches to print on. Buyers usually put it on a standard 1.25 in shelf-edge channel or the top of an 8 oz candle tin lid. Layout budget: about 5 lines of roughly 34 characters at 8 pt. Portrait or landscape, 2.25 × 1 and 1 × 2.25 are one product here.

Artwork advice

Design to 712 × 338 px at 300 dpi, keep important type inside 2.125 × 0.875 in, and use 7 pt as the smallest size. With 5 lines available at 8 pt, rank the information and drop anything a customer would not miss.

Leave room: 2.5 × 1.25 in of flat surface is ideal. If you wrap it, containers near 0.8 in across (with the 2.25 in side going around) leave a small seam gap.

Over 3 × 0.75 in, 2.25 × 1 in offers 0% extra label area, and the next size, 2.5 × 1 in, is 11% roomier.
