Hello everyone,

I have attached the box images with the size, Can anyone guide me about the sleeve size, or if anyone have a ready template? The sleeve width should be 3 or 4".

Thanks

David

I usually start off with a scrap strip of paper (doesn't matter the width or length, as long as it goes around the box with a little extra overlap), wrap it around the box, then mark it where they overlap. Then give it an extra 1/2" for a glue flap.

The reason for asking here was, I dont have the box :huh:

add the thickness of the box (x2) and the length (x2) plus 1/2". You will need a better pic that shows the actual size or have whoever took the pic measure it accurately so you can make a rectangle with folds.

What is the width of the sleeve? you only show the box size.


something like this:

Typical. Prepress is the mushroom of the printing greenhouse; they leave you in the dark, and feed you shit.
