I have recently typed up the actual text content of the shipit cd
covers because the wording is both legally and otherwise fairly well
thought out. I have begun to use it fairly successfully as a *simple*
folded cover for a paper CD case. The folded cover is from a single
A4 double sided printed sheet. I have only used mono printing so far
but the graphic is colour and with a different printer one can get
fairly close to the effect of a shipit pack, at a much reduced actual
cost I suspect.

The files are on

and specifically are
leaflet1b-SHIPIT-folded_alan_cocks
leaflet1b-SHIPIT-folded-instructions_alan_cocks
