5 × 2.75 in labels

In metric, 5 × 2.75 in is 127 × 70 mm; in everyday terms, a little smaller than a 3 × 5 index card. We checked it against common containers: it works for a wrap around the 5 oz woozy hot sauce bottle (5.5 in round) as well as a 4 × 9 in cello treat bag (3.75 × 6 in). Layout budget: about 18 lines of roughly 82 characters at 8 pt; with a full-size UPC-A barcode the rest of the face stays usable. The same page covers 2.75 × 5: rotate the artwork and choose the unwind direction in the builder.
