Custom Labels and Stickers Need a Double Check

Custom Labels and Stickers – Design Tip #6

Check, double check & re-check your spelling and grammar! I’m probably a little pickier than your average bear in this regard (once a journalism major, always a journalism major), but the last thing in the world that you want are custom labels with a big ‘ole misspelled word in them. I would advise having several people check your custom stickers before you send your files to the printer for grammar, spelling, punctuation, and capitalization. We’ve seen everything from addresses that are wrong to misspelled words in the company name to plurals that should have been singulars.

Custom labels and stickers are ripe for these types of errors. Get an employee, neighbor or friend who has a great eye for detail to look over your files and proofs. The more the merrier! You might want to create a sign-off or checklist for yourself to make sure that at least 3 people have looked over your design before you send your custom labels and stickers off to the loving care of your printer. They should be the 4th and final check before the ink hits the paper!
