8 × 8 in square labels

8 × 8 in labels measure 203 × 203 mm and give you 64 square inches – an even shape on every side. We checked it against common containers: it works for a 9 × 12 in envelope (9 × 12 in) as well as a 10 × 10 in cake box top (10 × 10 in). Text-wise, plan on about 55 lines of roughly 134 characters at 8 pt; a full-size UPC-A barcode fits too.

Artwork advice

Design to 2438 × 2438 px at 300 dpi, keep important type inside 7.875 × 7.875 in, and use 8 pt as the smallest size. Big labels go on easier from one edge: plan the design so a slight shift of 0.08 in is not noticeable.

Fit check: as a front label it needs a flat panel of about 8.25 × 8.25 in; wrapped around a bottle, the 8 in length suits containers from roughly 2.63 in diameter up.

8 × 8 in has 31% more space than 7 × 7 in; 9 × 9 in adds 27% more. The bigger 9 × 9 in runs about $54.58 extra for 1,000.
