A simple and easy-to-use Disk Image create-and-convert tool, DMGConverter allows users to create a new image from folder, convert an existing image to other supported formats, or to a segment image, resize images, verify checksum, and more.

As usual, the updated version (5.5) lacks the helpful release notes, although Softpedia can confirm a slightly improved behavior under Snow Leopard. Two new features are available as well, in the form of two new tabs. Users can now resize a read/write disk image and the partition within it via the "resize" tab, or remove those parts of a sparse image that are no longer being used by the file system, via the "compact" function.

DMGConverter is a highly intuitive tool. Best used for the collective processing of more than one file and every folder, Sunskysoft’s app can deal with all the fundamental processing, offering drag & drop functionality and quick results. Besides DMG files, DMGConverter includes support for sparse disk images, CD/DVD master disk images (CDR), and various types of ISO images. As noted in Softpedia’s extensive review of the program, the tool is completely free, making it a must have for any Mac user dealing with various kinds of image files.

DMGConverter permits the creation of the following types of disk images: Read-only Disk Image; ADC compressed Disk Image; zlib compressed Disk Image; bzip2 compressed Disk Image (MacOS 10.4 or later); DVD/CD master Disk Image (.cdr); Sparse Disk Image; ISO9660 Disk Image (ISO9660, Joliet)(.iso); UDF filesystem (.iso); Cross-platform Hybrid Images (.iso); NDIF compressed Disk Image (old).

Key features include abilities like creating a new image from a folder, converting existing images to other supported formats, converting existing images to a segment image, resizing existing read/write images, checking the image checksum, showing image information, and more. Sunskysoft insists on supporting PowerMac G3, G4, G5 computers still, as well as Intel Macs with a Universal Binary DMGConverter. As for supported operating systems, DMGConverter works with Mac OS 10.4 (Tiger) and later versions of Mac OS X. Use the link below to get the latest version of the software.
