I used this one for a while - it creates a PDF from your input.

I usually wait until I've got a bunch and then print 'em out six at a time to use a full sheet of paper.

I also have templates for MacroMedia FreeHand if anybody wants those.

I have a homemade Word template (created by the one and only Me) that works great. I replace the J-cards with some stiff 65lb stock paper. Contact me if you want the file.

jlykos · « **Reply #8 on:** October 03, 2003, 09:18:39 AM »

For everybody who e-mailed me asking for the file, I am going away this weekend and will e-mail it next week.

Which ones? Real audio DATs that have the hard cases, or Audio/DDS DATs that use the soft cases? I have dimensions for both, but alas they are at home.

blu666z · « **Reply #14 on:** October 06, 2003, 01:47:36 PM »

DDS I guess. Not what I would call soft but I assume we're talking about the same thing.

Going back to my days of working at a studio/duplication plant. Cassette cases either used hard cases or poly "soft" cases. Most folks ordered the hard cases, with the exception of the seminars, they tended to use poly cases.

I'll post the dimensions.

Uhmmmmm...you could probably break out your trusty ruler and measure yourself faster/easier than someone can post them.

Actually, no I can't. I am at work and wanting to kill sometime by laying out a template and I don't have any DATs here with me.

Well, here is the J-Card size: If you want to use a U-Card, you can get more info on the card, but it all depends on how you want to use the J-Card/U-Card.

+----------------------------+
| | --> Back of spine (.5 -in)
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
| | --> Spine (.4375 -in)
+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+
| |
| | --> Cover (2.0625 -in )
| |
| |
| <---- 2.875 ----> |
+----------------------------+

For a grand total of 3-inches. From top to bottom.

Enjoy,
Wayne

Transfer shows for people? You do that? What a guy. That deserves a +t.

That White Chocolate beer sounds pretty damn good. Save me a bottle?

Hey, that one Greenone posted doesnt work anymore, could anyone send me a program or template?

THANKS!

clarson · « **Reply #27 on:** October 10, 2003, 06:05:32 PM »

I sent tape edit through email. it's a pretty small file. if your mailbox can't handle it, mail me and we'll work it out

greenone · « **Reply #28 on:** October 10, 2003, 06:11:29 PM »

Damn...Wayne took it down (along with his whole site?!). Anyway, here's another one:

THANKS!!!! Dave, maybe we could talk to wayne about getting that file up? Maybe on ts.com???

Swampy · « **Reply #30 on:** October 10, 2003, 08:05:55 PM »

I must be a moron, I cant get either of thoes programs to work... The one Greenone posted gives me an error "not %pdf file" And the tape editor three they dont fit and look all weird... What happend to the first one Greenone posted... It was so EASY!!!!

Kevin · « **Reply #31 on:** October 13, 2003, 10:35:58 AM »

you can make labels with tapetracker? Ive been using tape edit and it does make them all weird and its been a pain in the ass working around it to make it fit. Is there a better program people use?

greenone · « **Reply #32 on:** October 13, 2003, 04:32:37 PM »

Dropped Wayne a line - he's having network issues, but he put the J-card page back up:

http://www.hoxnet.com/j-card.html

Phew! Gonna go make a few thousand right now.

The Word template that one of te guys sent to a few of us, works like a charm. I did a little tweaking to print exactly like I wanted. Drop me a PM if you want it.

-Kevin

Kevin · « **Reply #35 on:** October 13, 2003, 04:56:15 PM »

I tried sending you a PM but it wont let me, if you get a chance id like to check it out

blu666z · « **Reply #36 on:** October 13, 2003, 04:58:41 PM »

Could you try again? I deleted all my PMs..maybe I had too many.

Thx.
