Print a cover

Solved

Hello,
I would like to print covers for standard DVD cases. I have downloaded several software programs that allow me to set the cover to the right format, but they are all designed to print directly from the software... which I can't do with my computer, as I have to put the file in PDF format on a USB stick to print it. When using these software programs, if I set the cover to the right format, the printer tells me it can't print it. Do you have a software that works with my issue or just a solution without software?

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

All recent word processing or image editing software normally allows you to set a custom dimension for printing in the desired format... Which software are these covers made with, or what format do they have?

Best regards.

Thank you for the quick response
I used Photoshop with 2 methods:
- Sheet size 18.3×27.3 cm (standard DVD size) that I saved as a PDF for printing.
- A4 sheet with the dimensions of the cover (18.3×27.3) automatically importing the image (but I have no guarantee that the format is actually correct doing this) and saved as a PDF

I also used coverxp in A4 format with the cover at the correct size inside.
(It bugs a lot and it's in English, so it's quite annoying to use)

But I don't really understand the problem, through your two methods, what prevents you from printing these PDFs directly afterward? Does the printer not recognize the files either?

The printer tells me that the format is invalid, it recognizes the file but doesn't want to print it.

Actually, that's the crux of the problem... Can you give us the exact printer model?

Hello ......

It's possible provided you install Epson Print CD or Epson375632EU.rar ► Here
It's a small Epson software compatible with all printer brands...
You create your covers and print them on a sticky media that you need to buy for DVD or CD or Case

On the other hand, you need to buy adhesive supports ► Here for example
These ones ► For CDs or DVDs Model J8676
These ones ► For Covers Model J8435
A bit expensive but very effective
A+
