Hi all,
I'm seeking a template for printable discs (CD and DVD) in a Canon Pixma iP4700 printer. Anyone know where i might find one?
Alternatively, I do have a template I used to use in Adobe InDesign, saved in both CS2 and CS5 formats. Can anyone help me with importing it into CD X7? Tricky bit is, I don't currently have access to Adobe software, to save it into any interim formats that might ease the transition.
Thanks for any help.
Hello Bran; most of the labels you buy for printing CD & DVD labels come with a template. If that helps.

Hi George and Mike,
Thanks for the replies, but I'm not talking about labels. (Definitely not a fan of stick-on labels for discs, because they get old and start peeling off very quickly and can cause untold problems in a disc player.)
That's why I'm looking for a template for printable discs. And why I'm using a Canon printer, which has a distinct tray for printable discs.
Thanks for the offer of helping out, Mike. How do I upload a file here?
Edited to add:
Actually, I worked it out. (Thought I'd checked out the Options tab, but I was wrong.) But ... even zipped, the file's too big for the 256KB limit. Not by much, but I have no way of cutting it down further.
Thanks anyway, Mike. I appreciate the offer.
ZIP it up. I think there is a 256k limit.Using the full reply link (not the quick reply), choose the following tab:
If it is larger once ZIPped, then upload to dropbox.com, or wikisend.com. The later site doesn't need registration and the link expires. Then post the link to it in a message here.

Mike,
You must have missed my update about the zip and finding out how to attach a file. But yes, it's still too big, even zipped.
In any case, I've upped it to wikisend. The download link is http://wikisend.com/download/670266/CD_tray.zip. The file is a template for Adobe InDesign.
Again, thanks for the help!
for use an Indesign file on CorelDRAW go to File and create a PDF (ie PDF X/3 or PDF X/4), then open the PDF with CorelDRAW
Hi Bran,
Strange template. Never quite seen one like it. Can you also share the Avery Label part number?
I have attached the CDX7 file. Desing layer is unlocked, guides and non-printing "template" layer is locked.

Hola, Ariel.
Can't do that, unfortunately, for a couple of reasons: as I said, I don't have InDesign at the moment to open the file and save it as another format; and PDF doesn't support the layers used. Thanks for the reply, though,
