Epson R300: DVD/CD template for Photoshop CS

[rezonat0r]

I've done a ton of searching but have still come up empty for an _actual_ working photoshop template for the R300. This thread even says one was posted recently, but it is NOWHERE to be found.

Not sure why Epson doesn't offer one for the R300. They have one for download for the Photo Stylus 960, but of course it is in an evil and unreadble self extracting Mac format (.SEA).

Many threads here have people saying they mythically acquired one or made one, so would someone be kind enough to actually post it or explain what they did in PS to make it?

Ideally, I would like to be able to resize the inner/outer borders separately to accomodate standard and hub-printables. So far every template I've tried has been way off, and yes I have told PS to not center or strech the image.

Thanks a BUNCH.

Try this one its for the 960. I think it will also work for both the 200 and 300. I took it down a few days ago.

What happens if your CD/DVD doesn't match that template?
I have DVDs that 119x22, 118x33 and a CD 117x38, 117x15 with hub label

It should match fine, you will just have to add a modification for the smaller hole config. The cd or dvd size itself should be fine if its a standard cd, being that this is in Photoshop you can pretty much figure it out with ease to do the smaller cd hole.

Then again, if you know how to use photoshop, why do you need a template? My whole point you could say. Templates are great if it the same as your product, but in many cases this template wont work, least for me.

I could post all my templates, but then someone will probably just request another size

Well i guess its up to the individual... The template that we are using here, is in Photoshop format and gives the user the ability to modify it to their hearts content.

If you are looking for a 0 configuration printing solution then seek elsewhere I suppose.
