C. USING OTHER GRAPHICS PROGRAMS
While SureThing will handle most labeling needs, some people prefer to use other graphic programs. Your printer driver allows you to print from most any graphics application. The driver will center the image and automatically crop it to the shape of a CD. This means you do not necessarily need a template to create a CD in your favorite graphics program. Simply create a custom page size of 120mm (4.72 inches) square and center your image in that area and the driver will do the rest. The center sizes listed in section 3A should guide you in creating your disc. Because the driver crops the image to the shape of a CD, you do not want to make your design round. You will find it is best to "over bleed" your design by filling the whole 120mm area with your image. This ensures the outer and inner diameters will print perfectly round on your disc.
D. USING KIOSK MODE
Kiosk Mode allows you to use both of Bravo's Bins as input, doubling your disc capacity from 50 discs to 100 discs. In this mode, the finished discs will be deposited out through the front of the Bravo. Refer to the Kiosk Kit User Manual for specific installation instructions. Kiosk mode is enabled
