In addition to the standard colors, are the basic colors, which provide more color choices,
but may appear to print lighter than they appear on-screen.
Preparing Color Graphics for import into the CD Label Program
The CD Label Program allows import of several standard graphics files, including
versions of BMP, JPG. And TIF file formats. The PowerPro II prints at 300 and 600 DPI
modes, so graphics should be set for 300 DPI resolution and properly sized for the disc
label. Typically, in Paint and Photo editing programs there are features that allow setting
resolution and imaging size. Having the correct size and resolution eliminates the need to
"re-size" the image in the CD Label software. Small images or low resolution images
may need to be stretched to a larger size, however this may cause the graphic to appear to
have a "rough" or "jagged edged" appearance.
Recommendation for preparing graphics for labels:
•
Set graphic image resolution to 300 DPI when preparing graphic in Photo or Paint
programs
•
Make text or graphic the correct size for the CD label
•
If possible, avoid re-sizing graphic in CD Label program
•
Importing a webpage graphics: on-screen webpage graphics are typically set for 72
DPI (low resolution) and will appear to "shrink" in size when imported into the CD
Label program which is displaying the graphic at 300 DPI. Re-sizing this type of
graphic to a larger size may cause the graphic to become fuzzy or have jagged edges.
Advanced recommendations:
•
In Photo and Paint programs, if possible select colors that mix only two of the three
CMY colors to minimize dithering
•
In Photo and Paint programs, adjust contrast and brightness settings to make
"brighter" and denser images
