Any recommendations out there for creating CD jewel case inserts?

I downloaded a program last night which was easy peasy to use with preset templates and picked all the album\track information from the CD and also let you import pictures to create your own artwork. Only problem is that after the 15 day trial is up the cost is $30 bucks which was a bit much for something that would only be used occasionaly.

Any suggestions other than Word or Excel?

Thanks Lee, but i'm bit of an old stick in the mud with both feet firmly in the 'anything but iPod' camp.

Rich, are you looking for a way to print your own?

Lee, many thanks for the help. I've knocked something up in Excel which will have to do for now.

I'd love to help more, but I'm not entirely sure of your mission.

Lee, rather than keep lots of original CD's in the car I make copies and put them in thin jewel cases and so I just wanted to be able to create basic inserts with album art and track info. I downloaded a programme called "AudioLab" which did the job a treat but is not worth the £20 asking price when the free trial is up.

I'm a lazy git who can't be arsed to type lots of info so I've decided to use "Exact Audio Copy" which I use for making FLAC copies to export the cd info into Excel and put it in a basic template I've created. Not perfect but it will do for now.

I've been wracking my memory since i saw the original post. Finally it came to me, on my other very rarely used PC i have a program that'll do this as well as DVD covers etc, etc. If i remember correctly it's called "cover XP".
I'm not sure if it's free tbh since i installed it ages ago but i'm sure i have the program on a CD somewhere.

I'll take a look & see if i can find it ;)
