10 × 3 in labels
A 10 × 3 in label (254 × 76 mm) is a slim strip about 3.3 times as long as it is tall, with 30 sq in of printable face. We checked it against common containers: it works for a laptop lid (11 × 7.5 in) as well as a 9 × 12 in envelope (9 × 12 in). Expect about 19 lines of roughly 168 characters at 8 pt, and a full-size UPC-A barcode if you need one. Need it the other way round? 3 × 10 is the same label turned 90°, so it is priced and ordered here.

Design notes
Guide lines first: 9.875 × 2.875 in for content, 3038 × 938 px for the full bleed canvas, 8 pt minimum type. With only 3 in of height, choose a condensed font and keep one idea per strip.
Leave room: 10.25 × 3.25 in of flat surface is ideal. If you wrap it, containers near 3.26 in across (with the 10 in side going around) leave a small seam gap.
Over 7 × 4.25 in, 10 × 3 in offers 1% extra label area, and the next size, 8 × 3.75 in, is 0% roomier.
