How much text fits on an OnlineLabels OL896 label
At 10 pt an OL896 label holds about 19 lines of 79 characters: room for a full shipping block, a packing list or a page of notes, so larger type (14 pt gives 13 lines) is usually the better choice. Helvetica estimates with a 0.056″ inner margin (inscribed square); the tool shrinks text that does not fit.
| Font size | Lines | Characters per line |
|---|---|---|
| 7 pt | 27 | 114 |
| 8 pt | 24 | 99 |
| 10 pt | 19 | 79 |
| 12 pt | 16 | 66 |
| 14 pt | 13 | 57 |
