2.5 × 2.25 in labels

With 5.62 square inches across 64 × 57 mm, the 2.5 × 2.25 in size is a near-square landscape shape. Typical homes for it: the top of a deli container lid; a soap box front (3.5 × 2.5 in). Inside the safe area there is room for about 14 lines of roughly 38 characters at 8 pt, or a full-size UPC-A barcode plus a product name. Searching for 2.25x2.5? That is this label rotated; the price is identical.

Artwork checklist

Guide lines first: 2.375 × 2.125 in for content, 788 × 712 px for the full bleed canvas, 8 pt minimum type. Print a 100% test and view it from 5.5 ft – if the name is not clear, enlarge it before adding details.

A 2.75 × 2.5 in flat panel is ideal; for wraps pick containers around 0.88 in diameter or bigger for the 2.5 in length.

Area-wise 2.5 × 2.25 in beats 3.75 × 1.5 in by 0%, while 3.25 × 1.75 in offers another 1%. Moving up to 3.25 × 1.75 in costs about $2.55 more per 1,000.
