How the Avery Zweckform 4746 sheet is laid out
The 1 column and 13 rows of Avery Zweckform 4746 labels are centred: 31.3 mm of backing at each side, 18.4 mm at the top and bottom.
No gaps at all: every 4746 label touches its neighbours, so keep an inner margin of 1.8 mm and avoid full-bleed colour.
The 1.8 mm rounded corners are drawn in the preview, with the 1.8 mm safe area where text belongs.
Labels cover 61 % of the page; the rest is backing.
No other sheet in LabelGrid's data (the gLabels database plus checked additions) has exactly the Avery Zweckform 4746 layout, so avoid "close enough" templates.
