Well what it basically is, is a CD cover and booklet. The cover and booklet conform to an image template so that they print the correct size and with correct margins at a given DPI. The covers are being produced for a range of CDs (the layout is the same on each disks but the images are different). The first page of every booklet lists credits and other information and these now have to be changed en masse as the text has been rewritten. I suppose I could export the covers to a page layout program but that would take a lot of work and would complicate our release process quite a bit. I'm not averse to the idea of writing a program to make these transformations in C, but I'm not aware of the existence of a 'libxcf' or equivalent to access the file format and I really don't want to have to do my own parsing! cheers, MC _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
