Often you may download some applications from the Internet that is stored as ISO image file. An ISO image is an archive file (also known as a disk image) of an optical disc in a format defined by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). So here is a simple tip on how to burn ISO image onto your CD/DVD.

First, insert a blank CD/DVD into your drive, the file manager will automatically appear. Navigate in the file manager and find the ISO image file that you want to burn onto the CD/DVD.  Drag and drop the image file to the blank DVD-ROM (or CD-ROM) disk.

You will be asked whether you want to “Create From Image” or “Create With File”.  The “Create With File” option will basically copy the files found in the image into the CD/DVD whilst the “Create From Image” will map the whole image file onto the CD/DVD.  Choose the “Create From Image”.
