This paper studies the problem of computing labeled orthogonal drawings. A label is modeled as a rectangle of prescribed size
and it can be associated with either a vertex or an edge. Several optimization goals are taken into account. Namely, the labeled
drawing can be required to have minimum total edge length, minimum width, minimum height, or minimum area. We present ILP
models to compute optimal drawings with respect to the first three objectives and an algorithm exploiting these models which
computes a drawing of minimum area (the compaction problem is known to be NP-complete in general).
