The most common international standard for the logical format of files and folders on a CD-ROM. There are several specification levels. In level 1, file names must be in the 8.3 format (no more than eight characters in the name, no more than three characters in the extension “.MP3” or “.JPG”) and in capital letters. Folder names can be no longer than eight characters. There can be no more than eight nested folder levels. Level 2 specifications allow file names and folder names up to 31 characters long. Each folder can have up to 8 trees.
For Joliet in the expansion format (file and folder names can have up to 64 characters) make sure of the contents of the writing software, etc.

Conventional CDs begin at a CD control area called the Lead-in and end at an area called Lead-out. A Multi Session CD is a CD having multiple sessions, with each segment from Lead-in to Lead-out regarded as a single session.
CD-EXTRA: This format records audio (audio CD data) on the tracks in session 1 and data on the tracks in session 2.
