3 × 0.5 in labels
A 3 × 0.5 in label (76 × 13 mm) is a slim strip about 6 times as long as it is tall, with 1.5 sq in of printable face. Measured against everyday packaging, it suits the top of an 86 mm wide-mouth lid and the top of a deli container lid. Treat it as a one-idea label: a logo, an icon or about 47 characters on a line.
