Designing a 5.5 × 12 in rectangle label
Decide on portrait or landscape first; the quote builder prices both the same, and the unwind direction sets how the roll comes off. Design at full size and check it from a few steps back: headline text should be large enough to read at a distance, and images need enough resolution for the print size (about 300 dpi at final size).

questions.
Prices and roll counts on this page are estimates. The quote builder gives your exact price before checkout, and every order starts with a free proof.
How much are 1,000 5.5 × 12 in rectangle labels?+
On matte rolls, 250 labels are about $176.82 CAD, 1,000 about $423.07 and 5,000 about $1,119.24 ($0.224 each). Prices are approximate, taken from our live price list on October 6, 2026. Enter your quantity in the quote builder for the exact total with standard shipping included.
How many 5.5 × 12 in labels come on a roll?+
Rolls are wound to order, so the count can be adjusted. Our guide figure is about 260 to 560 labels per single-lane roll, assuming a 3 in core and a roll up to 6 in across. Where you land in that range depends on the unwind direction: the long side running along the roll gives fewer labels per roll. Tell us in the order notes if your applicator needs something different.
Which material should I choose for 5.5 × 12 in rectangle labels?+
Four stocks are available: matte (about $423.07 per 1,000 here), glossy ($448.45), clear ($482.30) and freezer grade ($516.14). Pick glossy for brighter colour, clear for glass and clear plastic, and freezer grade for anything stored cold.
Is 5.5 × 12 in the same as 12 × 5.5 in?+
Yes. Enter the width and height the way your artwork reads; 5.5 × 12 and 12 × 5.5 in are the same price. For rolls, also pick the unwind direction so labels come off the roll the right way up for your product or applicator.
Will a 5.5 × 12 in label fit my bottle or jar?+
Measure the flat or straight part of the container. The label needs a panel at least 5.5 in by 12 in, with a little margin. If you want it to wrap all the way around, the long side (12 in) covers a round container of about 3.9 in diameter with a small gap.
How much text fits on a 5.5 × 12 in label?+
Plan for sign-style artwork: big graphics readable from across a room, or a full sheet of instructions, specs or a diagram. Keep important text and logos a little inside the cut line (about 1/16 in, 1.5 mm, is a good rule of thumb) and use a background that runs past the edge as bleed.
