Getting the layout right

Set your canvas to 3038 × 1088 px, put a 9.875 × 3.375 in guide inside it, and nothing smaller than 8 pt. Over 35 sq in, keep body text in columns no wider than about 4 in so it stays easy to read.

For boxes and pouches allow 10.25 × 3.75 in of flat face. On cylinders the 10 in side wraps neatly once the diameter is at least 3.26 in.

5 × 7 in is the next size down, and 10 × 3.5 in adds 0%, while the larger 9 × 4 in adds 3% on top. Moving up to 9 × 4 in costs about $17.60 more per 1,000.
