How the OnlineLabels OL870 sheet is laid out
The 3 columns and 8 rows of OnlineLabels OL870 labels are centred: 0″ of backing at each side, 0″ at the top and bottom.
No gaps at all: every OL870 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 OL870 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 OL870 layout, so avoid "close enough" templates.

How much text fits on an OnlineLabels OL870 label
At 10 pt an OL870 label holds about 7 lines of 39 characters, room for an address with a company line. Helvetica estimates with a 0.056″ inner margin; the tool shrinks text that does not fit. The OL870 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 | 10 | 56 |
| 8 pt | 9 | 49 |
| 10 pt | 7 | 39 |
| 12 pt | 6 | 32 |
| 14 pt | 5 | 28 |
