How the OnlineLabels OL178 sheet is laid out
The 2 columns and 1 row of OnlineLabels OL178 labels are centred: 0″ of backing at each side, 0″ at the top and bottom.
No gaps at all: every OL178 label touches its neighbours, so keep an inner margin of 1/4″ and avoid full-bleed colour.
The 0″ side margin is inside the roughly 6 mm many printers cannot reach, so edge-to-edge colour on the outer OL178 columns may print short.
Labels cover 100 % of the page.
No other sheet in LabelGrid's data (the gLabels database plus checked additions) has exactly the OnlineLabels OL178 layout, so avoid "close enough" templates.

How much text fits on an OnlineLabels OL178 label
At 10 pt an OL178 label holds about 65 lines of 59 characters: room for a full shipping block, a packing list or a page of notes, so larger type (14 pt gives 46 lines) is usually the better choice. Helvetica estimates with a 0.056″ inner margin; the tool shrinks text that does not fit. The OL178 labels run to the paper edge, where most printers cannot print, so keep text 1/4″ from the outer edges.
| Font size | Lines | Characters per line |
|---|---|---|
| 7 pt | 93 | 85 |
| 8 pt | 81 | 74 |
| 10 pt | 65 | 59 |
| 12 pt | 54 | 49 |
| 14 pt | 46 | 42 |
