Create CD Cover - How it works with MS Word
By creating a CD cover in MS Word yourself, you can give the case its own design or copy the booklet of the album. In order for the cover to fit in the case, you must take certain dimensions into account. In addition to MS Word, we present two other options.
Create and print CD covers yourself with MS Word
You can easily and quickly create your own CD cover with Word and then print it:
- For a self-designed CD cover, use the Office templates integrated in Word. Thanks to this, you don't have to measure the image for the cover yourself.
- To do this, click on "File" at the top left and navigate to the "New" menu item. Here you can search for online templates as shown in the picture.
- Once the template is open, enter the list of music tracks and the title. If you want, change the design too.
- Many templates are available to you free of charge and measure exactly the size of a common CD cover. Incidentally, these dimensions are 12x12 cm for the front and 15x11.8 cm for the rear view.
