I am basing my assumption on the phrase "CD label" in the subject line and body of the original post.

There are printers that print directly on a CD. Perhaps the poster has one of those. How are we to know?

You really shouldn't use labels on CDs/DVDs. Labels can cause the CD/DVD to be out of balance, and can damage the drive. If the label should warp, the disk could get stuck in the device. Air bubbles under the label could cause an unequal distribution of forces on the disc as it spins in the drive, which in turn could cause the disc to shatter while spinning at high speeds such as 52X for CDs and 16X for DVDs. Other issues have also been attributed to the use of paper labels on disks.

(You may not care about the possible long term effects but it's still good information to have on hand.)

How do I insert round or curved text that will follow the curve of the inside
or outside circumference of the CD label without using Word Art?
