Hi Theresa, It sounds like buying the Avery labels would be cheaper than buying the special CDs, and I *know* the Word template is fully accessible.
The Avery CD labeling sheets come with 2 sets per page, and come weither for inkjet or laser printers. Each set consists of a round label for the CD, and 2 long-thin labels for the edges of the jewel case: one for the edge for the thick jewel cases where you can see the spine like the spine of a book, and the other for the front side of the jewel case. The template I wrote can optionally put a barcode on both the CD round label, and on one of the jewel case labels, so you can use a talking barcode reader to match CDs with their proper jewel cases. You can also use the talking barcode reader to quickly find a CD. hth, Chip ------------------------------ Chip Orange Database Administrator Florida Public Service Commission [email protected] (850) 413-6314 (Any opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of the Florida Public Service Commission.) > -----Original Message----- > From: Millie's Mom [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Monday, January 12, 2009 11:22 PM > To: Chip Orange > Subject: Re: Light SCribe label software. > > I've got a lightscribe CD/DVD recorder.
