Making a CD from a Disc
Image
A disc image is also known as an image, CD-ROM image, or image
file. It is a single large file that is a representation of the whole set of
data and programs as it will appear on a CD. A disc image refers to
both content and logical format.
You can use disc images to:
■
Write the disc image to hard drive once, then record it multiple
times to different CDs to save processing time.
■
Add audio tracks to your CD using the Mixed-Mode or CD
Extra option.
■
Create a disc image file to be written to CD on another system.
■
Write your data to the hard drive first then record it to CD for
maximum security to avoid a buffer underrun.
