The simple labeler only has a top text, and bottom text and seems to be about 100 characters max.
You can pick different fonts, and borders, but when I choose a different font, my sighted help says it doesn't look any different.
Still, it allows me to atleast give them a disk that's marked, and sometimes that's enough.
Maybe with a little help, surething which is another ls tool that window-eyes sort of sees can be made to work, and with that one, you can save templates.
Also the other simple tool which is called lightscribe template labeler is similar to the lightscribe simple labeler, except you can have some graphics and such and load pre-made templates which have pre-defined text boxes and such.
So far, though, I've only managed to effectively by my self only use the simple labeler.
But allowing my clients to play artist and let them design their own stuff is a fun and cost effective way to keep all the penies at home 'grin'.
