Making Data Discs Using DirectCD
Close to UDF v.1.5: Close the CD to the UDF v.1.5 format so
that it can be read on most CD-ROM drives after installing a
UDF v.1.5 reader.
Use this option when you need to give the CD to
someone who has DirectCD 5.0 installed or who you
know has a UDF v.1.5–compatible reader installed. This
option uses less space on the CD for each session than
described in the Note below for ISO 9660.
When you make a CD using DirectCD, it automatically
copies the UDF Reader for Windows to the CD. When
you insert the CD into a CD-ROM drive, the reader will
automatically ask if you want to install it.
Close to Read on Any Computer: Close the CD so that it
can be read automatically in most standard CD-ROM
drives.
Use this option when you need to give the CD to
someone else to use and that person may not have a UDF
v.1.5–compatible reader installed. CD-ROM drives under
other operating systems, such as Unix, Linux, and
Macintosh, can also read the CD without using any
special reader.
Note: This closes the CD to the ISO 9660 standard. The ISO
9660 information requires approximately 22 MB of space on
the CD for the first session, and approximately 13 MB for
each additional session.
4 If you selected the Close to Read on Any Computer option,
you can also select the Protect CD So It Cannot Be Written To
Again option.
Selecting this option permanently closes the CD so you can
never copy more files to the CD.
5 Click Eject.
DirectCD ejects the CD using the option you selected.
For more information about the eject options, see Comparing the
CD-R Eject Options on page 62.
