The Easiest way to setup your TrepStar.com CD/DVD project:
All publishers are free to use our online system to prepare their CD/DVD for on demand self publishing (no setup charge applies).
This does take some time and effort to learn our system, and upload your data files. This is desirable for many publishers.
If you want to save time, and avoid potential errors and frustration, you may prefer to send us your cds/dvds in the mail.
To save the time required to prepare, compress, upload, and configure the data files for your project, follow these steps:
TrepStar.com CDDVDFulfillment
To save the time required to prepare, compress, upload, and configure the data files for your project, follow these steps:
- Create a free account on TrepStar.com
- Click the 'Add Project' button and enter the title of your project and whether it's a CD or DVD and pick packaging.
- On the step whether it asks you whether you'll be sending in your discs for setup, choose yes.
- When finished, look for the ProjectID the TrepStar system has assigned. This ProjectID is listed next to the title of your project in the login area (the list of projects).
- Clearly write the ProjectID on the disc with a felt tip marker.
- Send us a working, tested copy of your master CD(s) or DVD(s) in the mail. We make an exact copy of whatever you send us.
- Do NOT send us a CD with your artwork. You must use our art templates to create your .jpg artwork, and upload that to the TrepStar Project. We want you to learn how to upload artwork since it's easy. This way you can easily change the artwork any time you like.
- We accept music/audio CDs, Data CDs, and single layer 4.7GB (4,700,000,000 bytes) non encrypted DVDs (movie DVDs or computer readable data DVDs).
- We do not duplicate dual layer DVDs, bluray, or encrypted/copy protected DVDs.
- Do not send your only master copy. We do not return any discs you send.
- Artwork must be uploaded to the TrepStar project. You may do this at any time. If you do not, generic artwork will be used until you upload .jpg images.
- We receive your package, send you an email, setup your online project, and prepare your files to be burned to the disc(s).
- We charge a low, one time disc setup charge of $10.00 (per disc) to cover our costs.
- Once we receive payment, we will import and setup the project.
- We send you another email when the project is approved and ready for your order(s).
- Do you have a multiple disc set? No problem. Send us all of your discs and we'll add them to a single project shipped in one or more DVD cases. Our system works in one of two ways. You have to send us all discs for setup, or all disc files must be downloaded. Currently, it's not possible to have your project setup so that some discs are downloaded from a URL and some discs are setup by TrepStar. Setup fee of $10.00 (per disc) applies.
