cdrLabel

cdrLabel is a program designed to help users easily create and print covers for CDs. It is pretty old but works smoothly even on newer operating systems.

The interface is outdated but easy to work with. You can create a new project by selecting a label type (circular, slimline, standard, booklet) and page ordering mode (e.g. front to back).

It is possible to establish the number of columns and show separators and lines, insert text and images (e.g. GIF, JPG, PNG, TIF), edit text properties (e.g. alignment, color), modify the file list, as well as create an inclusion/exclusion list of files to display.

You can set the CD label, font and color, duplicate images and place them over the label or use them as the background, as well as apply photo effects (e.g. brightness and contrast, flip and rotate). It is possible to select the CD drive, export the project to HTML, BMP or TXT, as well as to save it to file for further modifications.

cdrLabel is very light on the system resources, running on a minimal amount of CPU and RAM. It has a good response time and works smoothly on newer OS platforms, without hanging, crashing or showing error dialogs. However, it has not been updated for a very long time.
