Keep text and logos inside a 4.875 × 0.875 in safe area and do not go below 7 pt. Wrapped jobs: nothing important within 0.3 in of the left and right ends, where the seam lands.
For boxes and pouches allow 5.25 × 1.25 in of flat face. On cylinders the 5 in side wraps neatly once the diameter is at least 1.67 in.
