8 × 6 in oval labels
Picture a half-letter sheet: 8 × 6 in oval (203 × 152 mm) is a little smaller than that. Measured against everyday packaging, it suits a 2 lb stand-up pouch front (6.75 × 9.5 in) and a laptop lid (11 × 7.5 in). For copy, count on about 30 lines of roughly 97 characters at 8 pt. A full-size UPC-A barcode also fits.
