This is handy to know - I sold some Amigas on eBay a while ago, and
sold them with copied Workbench disks that I'd made from image files
and labels scanned from originals and printed on a colour laser
printer.

To make sure I got the edges glued down, I cut them out, then glued
them using another sheet of paper underneath so I could go right out
to the edges. Needs careful handling though, it's very easy to get
little lumps of it on the outer face of the label.
