Use the following formulas to convert inches to dots and
metric:
Dots = inches x 192
Metric (1/10mm) = inches x 254
English (1/100 inch) = 100 x (dots/192)
Dots = Metric (1/10 mm) x 756/1000
Drawing Rough Sketches–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
After you decide what information you want to
print, sketch how you want the information to
appear on the label. Note any areas that are
preprinted on the label, such as a logo.
As soon as you know what information to
include on the label, and you have a rough
sketch, you can use a supply layout grid to
help you layout and size your label. If you do
not want to use a grid, go to "Considering
Field Types" to choose what information you
want on your label.
