How the Avery L7169 sheet is laid out
The Avery L7169 grid is not centred: 5 mm on the left, 4.4 mm on the right, so a template that assumes equal side margins drifts by 0.6 mm.
Columns have a 2.4 mm gutter but the 2 rows touch, so colour that bleeds off an L7169 label's top or bottom edge shows on the next one if the feed is 1 mm off.
The 2.1 mm rounded corners are drawn in the preview, with the 2.1 mm safe area where text belongs.
Labels cover 88 % of the page; the rest is backing.
No other sheet in LabelGrid's data (the gLabels database plus checked additions) has exactly the Avery L7169 layout, so avoid "close enough" templates.

How much text fits on an Avery L7169 label
At 10 pt an L7169 label holds about 31 lines of 53 characters: room for a full shipping block, a packing list or a page of notes, so larger type (14 pt gives 22 lines) is usually the better choice. Helvetica estimates with a 2.1 mm inner margin; the tool shrinks text that does not fit.
| Font size | Lines | Characters per line |
|---|---|---|
| 7 pt | 45 | 76 |
| 8 pt | 39 | 67 |
| 10 pt | 31 | 53 |
| 12 pt | 26 | 44 |
| 14 pt | 22 | 38 |

Where the Avery L7169 numbers come from
The L7169 geometry has not yet been checked against Avery's published template: print the plain-paper test first. Other geometry: gLabels template database (avery-iso-templates.xml). LabelGrid is not affiliated with Avery (Avery® is a trademark of its owner); "L7169" only names the sheet this template fits.
