2.75 × 1.5 in labels

Picture a sugar packet: 2.75 × 1.5 in (70 × 38 mm) is almost exactly the size of that. Measured against everyday packaging, it suits a business card (3.5 × 2 in) and a kraft hang tag (2 × 3.5 in). Layout budget: about 9 lines of roughly 43 characters at 8 pt; with a full-size UPC-A barcode the rest of the face stays usable. Searching for 1.5x2.75? That is this label rotated; the price is identical.

Layout tip

The smallest readable type here is about 7 pt; everything that matters belongs inside 2.625 × 1.375 in. Leave at least 0.06 in between the cut line and any border you draw, or slight drift looks uneven.

For boxes and pouches allow 3 × 1.75 in of flat face. On cylinders the 2.75 in side wraps neatly once the diameter is at least 0.95 in.

Compared with 3.25 × 1.25 in, 2.75 × 1.5 in has 2% more room – the next step, 1.25 × 3.5 in, adds 6%. For 1,000 labels the step to 1.25 × 3.5 in is about $10.19.
