2) Ctrl + double-click the thumbnail to make it a tiled background

or

3) Right-click on the image's thumbnail and select one of the "Set as background" options.

If the image you've selected doesn't have the same aspect ratio as the label you're putting it
on, it may appear stretched or squished. It that's the case, you can left-click the image's
thumbnail, drag it onto the label and release the mouse button, then click on the sizing bars to
make it big enough to overlap the label without altering its aspect ratio, and click on its title bar
or the image itself to position it where you want it.

If you've found an image you want to add to your label as a piece of clip art (rather than as the
label background), just left-click on its thumbnail, drag it onto your label, and release the
mouse button. The program will place the image where you dropped it. As soon as you drop it,
it should be in "selected" mode, with sizing bars and a toolbar. You can click on the image's
sizing bars to resize the image; you can click on the image's title bar or the image itself to
move it. You can also right-click on the image to pop up a menu with a variety of editing
options.

You can also drag image files from Windows Explorer and drop them onto your label, or paste
them from the clipboard.



I printed and nothing happened.

If nothing came out of the printer, it's likely that you selected a different printer than the one
you expected to print on. Click the "Print" toolbar button to launch the Print dialog, then check
to see what printer is listed at the top of the dialog in the "name" field. Is this the printer you
meant to print on? If not, set it to the correct one.

If you got a blank page from the printer, you probably either tried to print a blank label - one
you hadn't added any images, shapes, or text to -- or your hard disk is nearly full. If your hard
disk doesn't have at least 200 megabytes of free space, your printer driver is likely to have
trouble creating the temporary files it needs to print with.


How can I import the song titles from the CD I burned so I don't have to type them all in?

If you burned an audio CD, Acoustica CD/DVD Label Maker can usually import your song
information from the playlist file you created with your CD Burner program. When you burned
the CD, your CD Burning software should have created a file storing the names of all the song
files that you were burning onto the CD. If you didn't save this list, please do so from now on --
it will save you lots of typing.

If you click the "Tracks" button on the CD Label Maker's toolbar to launch the CD Contents
dialog and then click the "Import" button on that dialog, the Label Maker will pop up a dialog
that lets you find & select the playlist file you used to create your CD. Once you select the file,
