Ive used this program quite a few times for printing on my dvd's, but today I found out that it is great for creating labels as well. I have been looking for a label for the movie "Very Bad Things" for about a week now with no luck. So I decided to make one from the cover and loaded it into epson printcd. It allowed me to fit it in the cd window, and even import new graphics like the dvd logo and dolby digital logo from other labels. Now the only problem is I could only save it in the .ec3 format. I tried to change it to a jpg but it wouldnt work that way. Does anyone know if there is a way to save your creation in .jpg format?

No its not even close to photoshop, but it works and its really easy. im clueless when it comes to photoshop so this is a nice way to make labels that I cant find here or anywhere else.

I agree, I think Photoshop is jus tthe best for whatever it is you need to do. Once you know it well, it is so useful for any application.

Epson PrintCD is great for it shows you exactly where your label ends etc.
As for PS, well there is no program that compares.

The nice thing about the Epson prog is that it's easy to use, and quick to adjust the inner and outer diameters on print to the hub/non-print to the hub discs (for when I couldn't always get the hubbies, lol) For those of us who are artistically challenged it works great. Very Happy

And don't forget to use the CD/DVD Premium Surface setting when printing directly to the Cd/DVD.
