The new SureThing CD/DVD Labeler v5 Deluxe Edition is the easiest way to create
stunning, professional-looking labels. Whether you make music CDs, burn home
videos to DVD, or simply create backup discs, SureThing makes it easy to design,
create and print disc labels and case inserts like the pros!
More Layouts & Templates
The Deluxe Edition provides almost limitless design variations, all of which
can be customized and personalized... or you can create your own!
Coordinated Projects
SureThing v5 can coordinate your designs into project files, letting you apply
your CD or DVD label designs to cases or inserts without having to create separate
designs manually. SureThing synchronizes layouts, backgrounds and playlist data
across all designs in a project.
Alpha-blend Text & Images
Now you can set transparency for text, objects, photos and clipart, allowing
you to blend them into background images or into each other for cool effects.
Alpha-blending gives you limitless design variations and it’s simple to harness
its power... just select the text, photo or object you want to blend, and drag
the slider to adjust its opacity. Use it in conjunction with the layering commands
to create cool overlays, “ghosted” images and more.
Create & Manage Playlists
Import song titles, artist & album information directly from your audio CDs
or music players into your label designs with a single click. SureThing v5 supports
iTunes (including the ability to grab album art), Windows Media Player, Real
Player, WinAmp and others.
More Fonts
SureThing v5 includes a collection of high-quality TrueType fonts—many of them
specifically designed for disc labels, cases and inserts—and they’re all integrated
into the SmartDesign layout assistant, making it easy to choose a perfect font
combination for any layout.
Supports LightScribe Direct-to-Disc Labeling
LightScribe is HP’s newest media technology for labeling discs, called “Direct
Disc Labeling,” and it’s fully supported in SureThing Deluxe. This exciting
technology uses your LightScribe-enabled drive to create silkscreen quality, iridescent
labels burned directly to the disc surface, and SureThing is the first dedicated CD/DVD
software package to support it.
Efficient Print Manager
New to SureThing v5 is the ability to print to multiple printers and/or LightScribe
drives simultaneously, allowing you to work on one project while printing another
or burning a LightScribe disc in the barckground.
Supports a variety of CD/DVD Printers
Including those from Epson, HP, Canon, Primera, Microboards and others.
Import or scan your own images
You can insert images directly from your scanner or digital camera, or use
them as backgrounds, create photo collages and more. Photo-editing tools let
you crop, rotate and re-size images until you achieve the precise look you want.
Circular Text is a Snap
The Circular Text tool lets you easily create text that follows the contours
of CD and DVD edges. Works with any font at any size, and lets you scale, position
and rotate the text just by moving the mouse. You can even create spiral and
spoke text effects, perfect for song/scene titles, copyright text or any text
at all.
3-D Text Effects
Make text pop off your labels using angles, arches, spirals, drop shadows and
more. Just type your text, select a 3D style, then set colors, outlines, drop
shadows, etc. You can easily change and customize the appearance and size of
text effects you’ve created, place them on backgrounds or photos of any color
as well as edit the text and use them in other designs or label types.
Photo Touchup & Editing
Enhance photos and background images with built-in tools and filters. Crop
or rotate an image for the perfect fit, remove red eye, or adjust colors, contrast
and brightness. For a unique look, add a special effect to photos or backgrounds
using the Sepia, Colorize, Posterize or Solarize filters.
Make Photo Collage Covers
SureThing’s Background Collage feature is a powerful tool that lets you quickly
assemble images and photos to create a custom collage you can use as a background
for your label and case designs. Select a folder of images and specify a grid
image size for the collage (1x1 up to 20x20 images) and SureThing does the rest.
You can change the contents of the collage simply by pressing “shuffle” or selecting
a different folder of images and photos. For discs with playlists, SureThing
can automatically grab the album cover art from programs such as Apple iTunes
for each track in the playlist. It’s a fast and fun way to create cover art
for your music compilations.
Barcode Tool
SureThing’s new Barcode Tool lets you create any type of barcode, perfect for
commercial projects, inventory systems, etc. Just enter the number and SureThing
formats it properly based on the type of barcode you’re creating (supported
barcode formats: UPC-A & E, Code 39, 128 & 93, EAN 13 & 8, Codabar and Interleaved).
You can change the color, size and position of the barcode to precisely meet
your design specifications.
