A label can look sharp on screen, then lose contrast once it is printed, wrapped around a curved bottle, and placed under bright retail lighting.
Small type, ingredient details, barcodes, and variable-print areas need a physical check before a full run. A printed proof can reveal glare, tight spacing, or a colour choice that makes important information harder to read.
