12 × 7 in labels
A 12 × 7 in label is 305 × 178 mm, a little smaller than a letter sheet. That is space for about 48 lines of roughly 203 characters at 8 pt – enough for a full-size UPC-A barcode with a line or two above it. Searching for 7x12? That is this label rotated; the price is identical.

Design notes
Guide lines first: 11.875 × 6.875 in for content, 3638 × 2138 px for the full bleed canvas, 8 pt minimum type. Big labels go on easier from one edge: plan the design so a slight shift of 0.12 in is not noticeable.
Flat surfaces should measure 12.25 × 7.25 in or more. Used as a wrap, 12 in covers a bottle of about 3.9 in diameter almost completely.
12 × 7 in is 5% larger in area than 10 × 8 in, while 8.5 × 11 in is 11% bigger still. Going one size bigger costs roughly $27.29 more per thousand.
