4 × 1.25 in labels
A 4 × 1.25 in label (102 × 32 mm) is a slim strip about 3.2 times as long as it is tall, with 5 sq in of printable face. We checked it against common containers: it works for a #10 envelope address block (4.25 × 2.5 in) as well as a 4 × 9 in cello treat bag (3.75 × 6 in). Text-wise, plan on about 7 lines of roughly 64 characters at 8 pt; a UPC-A barcode at 80% scale fits too. Portrait or landscape, 4 × 1.25 and 1.25 × 4 are one product here.

Print-ready tips
Design to 1238 × 412 px at 300 dpi, keep important type inside 3.875 × 1.125 in, and use 7 pt as the smallest size. With only 1.25 in of height, choose a condensed font and keep one idea per strip.
A 4.25 × 1.5 in flat panel is ideal; for wraps pick containers around 1.35 in diameter or bigger for the 4 in length.
4 × 1.25 in gives you 0% more printable area than 5 × 1 in; 3.5 × 1.5 in has 5% more again. Stepping up to 3.5 × 1.5 in adds about $10.18 per 1,000 labels.

How do I avoid blurry 4 × 1.25 in labels?
Send at least 1,238 × 413 px for raster art – 300 dpi across the 4.125 × 1.375 in bleed area – or a vector PDF.
