+The simplecd package
+
+The simplecd package provides printable cut-outs for various CD, DVD and other data storage holders.
+The name of the package comes form it's implementation and ease of use.
+
+The simplecd package was created for producing cut-outs for creating covers, inlays(inlets) for
+optical disc packaging such as jewel cases, keepcases. Additional data storage cover support were added for
+VHS, audio cassette and gramophone records. The covers were aimed for containing only
+simple text with different font sizes, but since everything is placed inside a \parbox environment, it can
+contain a wide range of things.
+
+There are also macros which can resize ready-to-print images to the appropriate size.
