WHAT IS THE ORANGE BOOK?

•The Orange Book is a document that describes the specification for CD-Write Once (CD-Recordable) technology.

•It defines both the physical structure and dimensions of a CD-R disc as well as the use of certain portions of the recording surface:

•to record information (the Program area),

•to calibrate the recorder laser power (Power Calibration area or PCA),

•to record track information for all sessions (the Program Memory area or PMA),

•to record the Lead-in Lead-out areas that preceed and follow, respectively, the Program area.

•There are several “parts” to the Orange Book. Part II refers to CD-Recordable.

WHAT DOES ORANGE BOOK CERTIFIED MEDIA MEAN AND WHY?

•The Orange Book, Part II is the primary specification for CD-R media. Accordingly, all CD-R media should meet the Orange Book criteria for recordability and playback.

•Philips and Sony, the orginators of the Orange Book, provide Orange Book certification of CD-R media.

WHAT IS MULTISESSION CD?

The principal purpose of multiple sessions is to allow additional data to be appended to a previously recorded disc.

NOTE: SOME OLDER CD READERS CAN READ ONLY THE

FIRST SESSION OF A MULTISESSION DISC.
