Start with a safe ID
Use a project or stencil code such as ST-042 instead of requiring a client name, email, or phone number.
Free stencil identification artifact
Create compact printable labels for stencil versions, sizes, and mirror states so similar prints do not get mixed up.
Use safe project IDs instead of client details. The labels identify prepared stencil items; they do not approve a design, plan placement, calculate stencil size, or replace a session reference sheet.
ID-first stencil labels
Build compact labels for multiple stencil sizes, versions, and mirror states. No client database, barcode inventory, or cloud storage.
Example: ST + 1 becomes ST-01. Manual IDs are always allowed.

Identification, not documentation
A useful label is intentionally smaller than a project sheet. ID, version, size, and mirror state stay visible first; optional metadata only helps distinguish otherwise similar items.
01
Use a project or stencil code such as ST-042 instead of requiring a client name, email, or phone number.
02
ORIGINAL, MIRRORED, or N/A is printed as text, not communicated only by an icon or color.
03
Width is required and height is optional. The label records a decision already made elsewhere rather than calculating physical stencil size.
04
Copies, duplicate, duplicate plus next ID, bulk renumbering, and automatic page packing support real batches without turning the tool into inventory software.
Keep the jobs separate
Use stencil labels for quick identification across many prepared items. Use the surrounding sheet tools when you need design review, placement measurements, session context, or flash availability.
Stencil Label Sheet
Many compact labels, repeated copies, ID-first layout, version, size, and mirror state.
Design Approval Sheet
One artwork remains visually dominant with review status and final design notes.
Open Design Approval SheetSize & Print
Use Size & Print for calibration, paper fit, and 1:1 stencil output before recording that size on a label.
Calculate stencil sizeThe label sheet is the artifact
Compact, Standard, and Large presets use fixed physical dimensions. The clean A4 or Letter print document contains only labels and optional cut guides, with no site navigation or marketing content.
The print document uses millimetres for label geometry. Choose 100% or Actual Size when available, then verify one printed label before producing a large batch.
There is deliberately no QR tracking, SKU catalog, scanner workflow, stock count, archive, or client database. The tool generates labels, then stops.

FAQ
Keep the label compact, project-safe, and operationally clear.
It creates compact identification labels for prepared stencil items. Each label keeps a safe ID, version, recorded size, and ORIGINAL, MIRRORED, or N/A state together so similar prints and files are easier to distinguish.
Before labeling
Generate a stencil from a reference on the web, then use the dedicated version and size tools when the item still needs a design or physical-output decision.
