Can anyone reccommend a good labeling software to jazz up A DVD master with printed titles ect..This would be given to the client once completed. Thanks
 
Re: DVD Labels.

It is my opinion to NEVER use labels but instead have them printed. Lables tend to RUB on players and are just overall cheap. There are many options for you, one of which is

You can design and submit your artwork and have the Disc's Printed properly. I am not sure of the details of whether they offer CD's, DVD's. CDROM's etc....

But worth looking into? Point being, don't stick a STICKER on the thing!
 
Re: DVD Labels.

Also, look into printers which are able to print directly to DVDs. That's probably your best bet.
 
Re: DVD Labels.

I know you can send your DVD out to have it printed or screened right on the DVD, but just for a wedding DVD for the couple or family members it seems that that could cost quite a bit more.

I printed this with the Epson R300:

Re: DVD Labels.

David,
Which printer are you using? Is the printer very expensive?
It looks really good.
 
Re: DVD Labels.

2 more questions: Do you stick the cd/dvds in a slot in the printer when printing to them? What software are you using to design the artwork for the cd/dvd?
 
Re: DVD Labels.

There's a tray which the printer brings in to a special slot (see the CD photo above).

The printer comes with its own software for desiging the artwork, but you can use any program you wish and then import it into the Epson software.
 
Re: DVD Labels.

Last question: I saw that the cd used was a memorex, Do you buy a certian one, that doesn't have any fancy designs on it such as a matte finish, i could see how that might show thru once printed on
 
Re: DVD Labels.

Yes we used the R300 as well to print the Filter Test DVD's on Ritek Inkjet printables, so you can take a look what they look like if you have em.

I found with it lining up the little arrows was bunk, now I just jam the tray in past the first rollers without looking and it lines up no problem all by itself.

Hey David,
I see youre in NC. Iam in the Atlanta area. Just got the DVX today and was playing around with it. Much, Much different than my ole Ikegami 55. Would you mind if I called you to ask a few questions regarding the DVX? If not my email is johnt57@bellsouth.net to exchange phone numbers. Thanks so much.
