Members kr236rk Posted March 20, 2012 Members Share Posted March 20, 2012 Hi? What's the lowdown on cd sleeve printing? Is there a software you can use? Can you buy something to design and print your own sleeves please? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Brian Hulnick Posted March 21, 2012 Members Share Posted March 21, 2012 I used to have it on my old PC but never got round to using it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kr236rk Posted March 21, 2012 Author Members Share Posted March 21, 2012 thanks. was going to use jewel cases + inserts for a project but half the cases i see in shops are cracked before you even unpack them, and some of the uncracked ones have probably had the plastic hinges snapped in transit ... which is ridiculous. DIY cd sleeves seem to be the best alternative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators daddymack Posted March 21, 2012 Moderators Share Posted March 21, 2012 you may find the slimline cases a better option than traditional jewel cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kr236rk Posted March 22, 2012 Author Members Share Posted March 22, 2012 you may find the slimline cases a better option than traditional jewel cases. thanks: the perspex cracks though & slimlines limit the disc info - am going for DIY sleeves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Brian Hulnick Posted March 28, 2012 Members Share Posted March 28, 2012 I have slimlines and there is plenty of room for track info etc. Check out e(vil)bay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Jahan Honma Posted March 29, 2012 Members Share Posted March 29, 2012 I really wish the slim jewel cases would become the norm. As long as the booklet can fit, I don't see why we need to waste all that extra plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Tgrimley Posted April 4, 2012 Members Share Posted April 4, 2012 The softer plastic cases are better. Those crystal ones are just too fragile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Carlos.S Posted April 12, 2012 Members Share Posted April 12, 2012 I buy the amaray type plastic cases for my CD's. They even come in different colors so that you can color code your library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members A. Einstein Posted April 25, 2012 Members Share Posted April 25, 2012 Best is you downbload the particular template from a Compact Disc pressing company, should be a photoshop ready PDF in 300 dpi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kr236rk Posted April 26, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 26, 2012 Yes indeed - thanks - think a bit of experimenting is going to come in as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
