What 21 labels per A4 sheet means
A count of 21 per sheet does not fix the label size: the 24 sheets here use 5 sizes and 1 grid (3 × 7). Labels cover between 81 % and 100 % of the A4 page; the rest is margin and gaps.
Always choose the template by the code printed on the box: two 21-up sheets with different sizes or margins need different templates, even though the count matches. The most common size at this count is 63.5 × 38.1 mm (20 sheets).

How many 21-up sheets you need
Sheets needed for a run of labels at 21 per sheet, starting on a fresh sheet, and when the first 7 positions of a used sheet are already gone (start at label 8).
| Labels | Sheets (fresh sheet) | Sheets (start at label 8) | Blank labels left |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 | 3 | 3 | 13 |
| 100 | 5 | 6 | 5 |
| 250 | 12 | 13 | 2 |
| 500 | 24 | 25 | 4 |
| 1000 | 48 | 48 | 8 |
Which 21-up sheet to pick
Avery L7160 is the default here because Avery codes are the usual reference for compatible sheets, and it shares its exact layout with 1 other sheet on this list, so its template prints on those too. Its labels are 63.5 mm (2.5″) by 38.1 mm (1.5″).
If you need bigger labels at the same count, the largest are 69.9 × 42.3 mm on Viking 02204; the smallest are 62.8 × 38.1 mm on Hema Etiketten. LabelGrid recommends 21-up sheets for address labels.

Frequently asked questions
What size are the labels on 21-up sheets?
It depends on the sheet: 63.5 × 38.1 mm (Avery L7160), 70 × 41 mm (Avery Zweckform 3481), 67 × 38 mm (Avery Zweckform 3348), 69.9 × 42.3 mm (Viking 02204) and 62.8 × 38.1 mm (Hema Etiketten).
How many sheets do I need for 500 labels at 21 per sheet?
24 sheets (4 labels left blank). For 100 labels: 5 sheets.
Is every 21-up template the same?
No. There are 6 different layouts at this count; label sizes and margins differ, so pick the template by the code on your box.
How do I print 21 labels per sheet correctly?
Download the PDF from the designer and print on A4 paper at 100 % (“Actual size”), without “fit to page”. Print one test page on plain paper and hold it against a label sheet first.
