6 inch circle labels

Picture a saucer: 6 in circle (152 mm) is almost exactly the size of that. Where it fits best: an 8 × 8 in cake box top (8 × 8 in), plus a 2 lb stand-up pouch front (6.75 × 9.5 in). Inside the safe area there is room for about 28 lines of roughly 68 characters at 8 pt, or a full-size UPC-A barcode plus a product name.

Design tip for this size

Set your canvas to 1838 × 1838 px, put a 5.875 in guide inside it, and nothing smaller than 8 pt. Curved edges: text running round a 6 in edge reads better than a square block forced into the middle.

The 6 in circle wants a flat spot of 6.25 × 6.25 in – roughly 159 mm – to sit without wrinkles.

6 in circle gives you 19% more printable area than 5.5 in circle, and 6.5 in circle has 17% more again. 6.5 in circle adds around $0.12 to a 1,000-label order.
