01 / Method
How to use this tool
- 1
Measure the flat panel, excluding curves and folds.
- 2
Enter finished label dimensions and the required edge margin.
- 3
Allow rotation only if artwork, grain, and application direction permit it.
02 / Model
Assumptions
- Panel and label are flat rectangles.
- The safe margin is equal on every edge.
- A rotated label is turned exactly 90 degrees.
03 / Boundaries
Limitations
- Does not detect seams, scores, compound curves, taper, barcode quiet zones, or applicator tolerances.
- Material stretch and placement variation are not modeled.
04 / Common questions
Frequently asked questions
What is the safe area?
It is the panel area remaining after the selected margin is removed from every edge.
Does a fit result guarantee barcode compliance?
No. Barcode quiet zones, magnification, print quality, curvature, and verification are separate requirements.
