Hi there, is it possible to create record labels using templates in Inkscape for professional printing?

If there is a special template for record labels, in Inkscape, I'm not aware of it.  I think there might be one for a CD label.  But that doesn't mean you can't create one yourself!  Even a newbie could create a custom template.  Here's a tutorial:  http://libregraphicsworld.org/blog/entry/using-templates-in-inkscape

On the other hand, I'm not sure why you would need a template.  What features of a record label, besides being round, would you expect to see in a template?  Maybe....what's it called...."printing marks"?  There is an extension for that, but I don't seem to have it.
