I need a quick answer about printing CD/DVD covers...

hi how are you,

can you tell me of any experiences you have with printing cd sleeves or jackets?

i'm trying to figure out how to go about doing this. i know exactly what design i want. now i just need to know how to translate this design into reality.

thx in advance, apologies if a thread exists.

oh lol. i was about to start a new thread and it was like "post to this one" so that's why my post is a little odd.

like should i just get some company to do this for me, or should i design it myself in photoship and just print on nice paper kind of thing

bump. come on, i know there are some bands on here with like, albums. how did u print ur covers?

I had a 6-panel digipack made by discmakers (discmakers.com or something); they also pressed the cds. but I'm not sure that's the sort of thing you want to do; is this a commercial product or just some mix-cd thing? or some presentation thing?

oh and the design was done professionally by someone else, I didn't leave it to them, but they will do that for you if you want.

it's my ep. and i know the design i want. i guess i could send them a pdf? my friend is helping me put it down on photoshop.

nice, this website looks helpful. thx

Usually if you find the company that will print them, they will have downloadable forms on their website, and it's a matter of just fitting your artwork into their form files.

But that's only if you want to do hundreds of prints at once. If you're self-releasing this, printing as you sell, then you can simply download a form and do it yourself. I'm sure google will reveal dozens of free applications that will do this.
