Label design requirements 
The Everest printer Windows compatible software ships with a label editor called CD Designer™, 
which is installed on your PC during a typical installation of the Rimage software. If you have a 
Windows based PC, you can use CD Designer to design your labels. 
 
Note: CD Designer is not Macintosh compatible and will not be installed with the Macintosh 
compatible software. 
If you have another software application that you prefer, or if you are using a Macintosh 
computer, you can create a label and save it as an Acrobat
®
(.pdf) file, a .jpg file, or a .tiff file.

  If you are using a standalone Everest printer or an AutoEverest AutoPrinter, you can print 
using a label file designed in any program.  
o
  If your Everest printer is on a Rimage autoloader (except the AutoEverest AutoPrinter) 
and using Windows compatible software, only the Acrobat (.pdf) or CD Designer (.btw) 
file can print directly to the Everest printer.  
To create a label with a software application other than CD Designer, use the following criteria: 
•  Color depth – Save the artwork for the label with the color set to millions of colors. 
•  DPI – Use pictures or logos set to 300 DPI (Dots Per Inch). 
•  Label design size – A full size disc is 120 mm (4.723”). The hole is 15mm (0.59”). The 
printable area and hub sizes vary depending on the disc manufacturer
.
