How the Avery L7160 sheet is laid out
The 3 columns and 7 rows of Avery L7160 labels are centred: 7.2 mm of backing at each side, 15.2 mm at the top and bottom.
Columns have a 2.5 mm gutter but the 7 rows touch, so colour that bleeds off an L7160 label's top or bottom edge shows on the next one if the feed is 1 mm off.
The 1.8 mm rounded corners are drawn in the preview, with the 1.8 mm safe area where text belongs.
Labels cover 81 % of the page; the rest is backing.

Where the Avery L7160 numbers come from
The L7160 size, count, layout and margins agree with the LibreOffice label database (checked 2026-10-24); this is a cross-reference, not a check against Avery's own template. Data note: Cross-checked against LibreOffice's label database (Avery A4): 63.5 x 38.1 mm labels, 3 x 7, first label 7.2 mm from the left and 15.15 mm from the top, pitch 66.04 x 38.1 mm; gLabels had 63.99 x 38.1 mm from 7.48 / 15.49 mm at 66.04 x 38.1 mm. avery.co.uk blocks automated requests, so Avery's own A4 page could not be fetched. Other geometry: gLabels template database (avery-iso-templates.xml). LabelGrid is not affiliated with Avery (Avery® is a trademark of its owner); "L7160" only names the sheet this template fits.
