Special Instructions (Optional)

Set Up Your Artwork for Success 

To ensure your Glossy Paper Labels print perfectly, follow these guidelines when preparing your artwork: 

File Setup Checklist 

  • Resolution: 300 DPI or higher for crisp, clean printing 
  • Color Mode: Set your file to CMYK for accurate color results 
  • Accepted File Types: AI, PSD, JPEG, PNG, SVG, TIFF, PDF, or EPS 
  • Preferred Files: Vector artwork or high-resolution raster files (300 DPI) 

Size & Layout Guidelines 

  • Minimum Size: 0.75” x 0.75”
  • Maximum Size: 11” x 14” 
  • Safety Margin: Leave at least 1/8” (0.125") of space around the edge of your design to prevent accidental trimming 
  • Small Details: We can print fine elements and fonts as small as 5 pt clearly 
  • Wrap-Around Labels: For containers like tubes or jars, add 1/4” to the length so the label overlaps cleanly 

Industry-Specific Requirements 

If your labels need to meet compliance or packaging standards (e.g., food, cosmetics, supplements), make sure your design includes all required elements—we print what you provide. 

Cutting Corners with Precision 

  • Our laser cutting process ensures a clean, professional finish—designed to reduce peeling and maintain durability across packaging and product applications. 
  • Standard Corner Radius: 1/8” (0.125”) for smooth, consistent results 
  • Tight Corner Option: 1/25” (0.04”), available when your design allows for more precise cuts 
  • Need tighter corners? Leave a note in the Special Instructions box at checkout. Our Art Team will review your file and confirm feasibility based on your artwork and label use case.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Custom Glossy Paper Labels?

Custom Glossy Paper Labels are specialized labels made from high-gloss paper with a UV varnish finish. They are designed for indoor use and provide sharp details and vibrant colors for a polished, professional look. With a strong permanent adhesive, they adhere securely to plastic, glass, and cardboard, making them ideal for branding and packaging.

What Are Glossy Paper Labels Best Used For?

Glossy Paper Labels are ideal for indoor applications where moisture exposure isn’t a concern. Their vibrant, high-quality finish makes them perfect for branding, product packaging, and promotions.

Are Glossy Paper Labels waterproof?

No, our Glossy Paper Labels are not waterproof. If you need a waterproof option, we recommend our Glossy BOPP labels, which are durable, water-resistant, and ideal for products exposed to moisture or refrigeration.

How durable are Glossy Paper Labels?

Glossy Paper Labels are durable for short-term use in dry environments. If you need a more durable or moisture-resistant label, check out our Glossy BOPP labels.

What is the difference between Glossy Paper Labels and Glossy Labels?

Glossy Paper Labels are paper-based with a UV varnish finish for indoor, dry-use applications, while Glossy Labels are polypropylene, water- and oil-resistant, and more durable for moisture-prone products like food, beverages, and cosmetics.

What is Rush Production?

Rush Production is available based on availability and is an optional service for stickers and labels only that speeds up your order's processing and manufacturing. When selected at checkout, your order is prioritized for artwork review and printed the next business day after you approve the proof. Rush Production does not include expedited shipping—faster delivery must be selected and paid for separately. It applies to the entire order, so if only part of your order needs to be rushed, place it separately. Orders with Waterless Tattoos are not eligible. To qualify for the next-business-day turnaround, your proof must be approved promptly. Delays in approval will delay production. Rush Production includes a fee for priority handling and faster turnaround. If you're in Colorado, local pick-up is also available for even quicker receipt. For more details, check out our Rush Production: How to Get Your Stickers and Labels Faster article.

Can I Write on Glossy Paper Labels?

Yes, but results may vary. Permanent markers work best on glossy surfaces, while ballpoint pens and gel pens may smudge or not adhere well. If you need a writable surface, consider our Matte Recycled Paper Labels instead.

What are the best markers for Glossy Labels?

For handwritten customization, permanent markers such as Sharpies or oil-based paint pens work best on glossy paper labels. Water-based markers may smudge or not dry properly.

Why choose professionally printed Glossy Paper Labels over DIY printing? 

DIY printing comes with ink costs, alignment issues, and smudging. Ordering custom-printed labels in bulk is a cost-effective, time-saving solution for businesses. Our high-quality digital printing delivers sharp details, vibrant colors, and no extra charges for full-color designs.

With roll labels, application is faster and easier, whether by hand or with a label applicator. Plus, we offer custom shapes and sizes without the hassle of printer margins or misalignment.
