I'm looking for a disk labelling program to produce about twenty sets
of ten different labels for 3 1/2" disks. Although I'd like to
produce them on a LaserWriter, I suspect that there's too much danger
of gumming up the print rollers with the labels (if anybody has had
any experience with this problem--or has successfully overcome it--I'd
like to hear about it). As an alternative, we've got an ImageWriter
II with tractor-feed label sheets (painfully slow, but doable). The
program I have in mind would let me specify the number of labels along
both axes of the page, and either set the spacing automatically or let
me do it manually (with enough flexibility for me to tweak things a
bit). The program I have in mind might look something like the old
Silicon Press program, though I don't need all of those features.
One final requirement: I need this program within the next few days,
so a free/shareware program that is FTPable is almost a necessity.
Through concentrated lack of planning :-), I forgot this aspect of the
production process, then suddenly realized that _somebody_ :-) would
have to type out two hundred disk labels if I didn't find a better
solution. If anybody could recommend a decent program to handle this
task, I'd really appreciate it. If there's sufficient interest, I'll
summarize to the net.
