Deciding upon CD or DVD depends largely on the size (quantity) of content. One disc CD can store information up to 700MB, one DVD can store up to 4.7GB (4.7GB = 4812.8MB). Therefore DVD discs can hold 7 times more information than CDs.
The choice of using a CD or DVD can also depend on the type of content or more specifically the file format of the information. For example, if you would like to record audio content in an AudioCD format then you would have to choose CD discs and fit the content in the frame of 80 minutes audio. If you would like to record video in the specific DVD-format you would have to choose DVD discs, even if your content is smaller than 4.7GB.
Yes, we could record/duplicate your information on USB-sticks.
- We can record/duplicate your information on USB-sticks or external hard discs. If you need diskettes we could even multiply your information on diskettes.
This is the process of printing (aligning) an image on the surface of discs. This print can be in either full-color or black and white. The whole surface of the disc can be used for printing or only part of it, depending on your design and the needed printing surface. A whole image can be printed or just headings, titles, logs, etc.
The technology is diverse, but the print is always directly on the surface of the disc and not through sticking an additional sticker, paper or other materials. We can print any image directly on top of the disc: photos, graphical images, headings, logos or a combination of those elements.
You could provide a ready-made design (created by you or other specialists in the area of prepress) or you could ask us to design the image for you.
