Does this template follow the current FDA Nutrition Facts format?

Yes. The template implements the FDA 2020 updated Nutrition Facts format as defined in 21 CFR 101.9. This includes the current mandatory nutrient order, Added Sugars as a separate line with % Daily Value, updated reference amounts, and the required typography and divider specifications. This format has been mandatory for all manufacturers since January 1, 2021.

Can I customize the design of this nutrition label template?

Yes. Open the template in the Typcraft visual editor to change fonts, adjust spacing, update colors, or modify the layout. Every element — from the title to individual nutrient rows — is editable using the drag-and-drop interface. The template uses data-bound fields, so you can update all nutrient values without touching the design.

How do I generate nutrition labels automatically from my application?

Use the Typcraft REST API. Send a POST request with your template ID and a JSON payload containing all nutrient values (servings, calories, fats, sodium, carbohydrates, vitamins, etc.). The API returns a PDF in under a second. This works for single labels or batch generation across an entire product catalog.

Does the template calculate nutrient values or % Daily Values for me?

No. This template handles the visual layout and formatting only. You provide the final display-ready values — including amounts, units, and % Daily Value percentages — and the template places them in the correct FDA-compliant format. Nutrient calculations, rounding rules, and %DV math should be done before sending data to the template.

Can I use this template for food products I sell commercially?

Yes. The template produces a standard FDA Nutrition Facts panel suitable for commercial food packaging. However, you are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of your nutritional data and overall compliance with FDA labeling regulations (21 CFR Part 101), including any claims, allergen declarations, or ingredient lists that appear outside the Nutrition Facts panel.

What formats can I export the nutrition label in?

The template generates high-resolution PDF output with vector typography, suitable for commercial printing. You can also generate PNG or SVG formats via the API by specifying the format in your request.

Is this the vertical or horizontal format?

This template uses the standard vertical format, which is the default FDA layout for most food products. The vertical format is required unless the package qualifies for an alternate format (tabular, linear, etc.) due to size constraints.

What This Nutrition Facts Label Template Includes

This template reproduces the FDA 2020 Nutrition Facts panel as defined in 21 CFR 101.9. The layout includes the bold "Nutrition Facts" header, servings per container, serving size, a calories section with large-format number, and all 15 mandatory nutrients listed in the regulation-required order: Total Fat, Saturated Fat, Trans Fat, Cholesterol, Sodium, Total Carbohydrate, Dietary Fiber, Total Sugars, Added Sugars, Protein, Vitamin D, Calcium, Iron, and Potassium. Each nutrient row displays the amount and % Daily Value exactly where the FDA format requires them.

The template follows the FDA's typographic specifications: bold names for primary nutrients, regular weight for sub-nutrients, italic formatting for "Trans" Fat, and the correct indentation hierarchy — flush left for primary nutrients, single indent for sub-nutrients, and double indent for Added Sugars. Dividers use the three FDA-specified weights: 7-point heavy bars to separate major sections, a 3-point medium bar below calories, and hairline rules between individual nutrient rows. The footnote at the bottom includes the standard Daily Value disclaimer text.

Every text field in this template supports data binding. Nutrient values, serving sizes, calorie counts, and % Daily Values are all dynamic — the template fills them in automatically from the data you provide.

Why Use a Data-Driven Nutrition Label Template

Creating nutrition labels by hand in a word processor or design tool works until you need to produce more than a few. Each product variant, serving size change, or reformulation means manually updating values and double-checking formatting. Mistakes happen — wrong indentation, missing nutrients, inconsistent typography — and any of these can create compliance issues.

A data-driven template separates the design from the data. The layout stays locked to FDA specifications while the nutrient values come from your system. Update one value in the data payload and the label regenerates with correct formatting, correct order, and correct emphasis. No manual layout adjustments required.

FDA Compliance Details

This template implements the updated Nutrition Facts format that became mandatory January 1, 2020 for manufacturers with $10 million or more in annual sales, and January 1, 2021 for smaller manufacturers. Key format elements include:

Added Sugars declared as a separate line with % Daily Value, using the "Includes Xg Added Sugars" format
Updated Daily Values based on the 2020 reference amounts (e.g., 78g Total Fat, 28g Dietary Fiber, 50g Added Sugars)
Vitamin D and Potassium mandatory (replacing Vitamin A and Vitamin C, which are now optional)
Calories displayed in larger, bolder type for increased visibility
Serving size requirements reflecting amounts people actually eat

The template handles the visual formatting. You are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of the nutritional data you provide — the template does not perform nutrient calculations or rounding.

How to Use This Template

Visual editor — Open the template in the Typcraft editor, update nutrient values directly in the canvas, customize fonts or colors if needed, and export a PDF from the preview panel.
REST API — Send a POST request to the generate endpoint with your template ID and a JSON body containing all nutrient values. The API returns a PDF ready to save, print, or integrate into your packaging workflow. Use this for batch generation across product lines.
