CD labels with curved text
We all move forward. Sometimes we take big steps and sometimes we crawl. The
important thing is that we are moving ahead and that we are comfortable with our own pace. ;-) -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "TidyGirl" wrote in message ... Now that would be a great option if i'm really ony interested in the presentation of the disk. Wow, i learned so much from this post and am impressed that so many were willing to take the time to answer it. No more sticky CD labels for me!!! this Neanderthal is moving forward. "JoAnn Paules" wrote: It's one of those things that's becoming more widely known. Obviously the label makers aren't saying squat but I've heard that some CDs now have warnings about using labels. I have some disks with labels that are fine but the equipment I had was older and slower. I prefer not to pick pieces of labels or disks out of my computer - or my car's CD player. I have enough stuff to deal with without adding to it, ya know? Instead of making a pretty label, why not make some really cool CD case liners? -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "TidyGirl" wrote in message ... Thank you taking the time to tell me this. i didn't know that! I was just trying to create an attractive copy of an audio CD. "JoAnn Paules" wrote: You really shouldn't use labels on CDs/DVDs. Labels can cause the CD/DVD to be out of balance, and can damage the drive. If the label should warp, the disk could get stuck in the device. Air bubbles under the label could cause an unequal distribution of forces on the disc as it spins in the drive, which in turn could cause the disc to shatter while spinning at high speeds such as 52X for CDs and 16X for DVDs. Other issues have also been attributed to the use of paper labels on disks.

How do I insert round or curved text that will follow the curve of the inside or outside circumference of the CD label without using Word Art? |
