2.75 × 2 in labels

Hold up a business card and you have a feel for 2.75 × 2 in: a little smaller than it, 70 × 51 mm, 5.5 sq in. Where it fits best: the top of a deli container lid, plus a soap box front (3.5 × 2.5 in). Text-wise, plan on about 12 lines of roughly 43 characters at 8 pt; a full-size UPC-A barcode fits too. The same page covers 2 × 2.75: rotate the artwork and choose the unwind direction in the builder.

Good uses for the 2.75 × 2 in size

Lid label: deli container lid

Sits inside the 4.1 in flat area with 0.65 in of rim showing – no lifting at the edge.

On a soap box front

Covers roughly 62% of that 3.5 × 2.5 in area – branded without hiding the pack.

Retail price cards

A price in 57 pt plus a 34-character description at 10 pt.

Main product label

Name, net quantity and maker in 12 lines – the whole front panel on 70 × 51 mm.

Design notes

Design to 862 × 638 px at 300 dpi, keep important type inside 2.625 × 1.875 in, and use 8 pt as the smallest size. Leave at least 0.08 in between the cut line and any border you draw, or slight drift looks uneven.

On flat packs allow 3 × 2.25 in. On round containers the 2.75 in side wraps a 0.95 in diameter or larger.

Against 3 × 1.75 in you gain 5% more face with 2.75 × 2 in – going up to 4.5 × 1.25 in gives 2% more. Going one size bigger costs roughly $5.09 more per thousand.

Can I get 2.75 × 2 in labels on a 1 inch core?

Yes – roughly 1,600 max on 1″ (handheld dispensers), versus 6,100 on the standard 3″ core.

How do I set up 2.75 × 2 in label artwork?

Make the canvas 863 × 638 px (300 dpi) – that is 2.875 × 2.125 in including bleed – and keep text off the outer 1/16″.
