What iso format do I use to make sure it can be read on a Mac.

I need to make sure that the .tif and .jpg files I am burning from my Windows PC can be read on a Mac computer. I did some searching and found Macs can read ISO9660. When using ImgBurn to make the .iso from the files ImgBurn gives the option ISO9660 plus it also offers ISO9660 + UDF, ISO9660 + Joilet + UDF, .... and a few more options. My question is first can I just format the CD using "mastered" that the windows software offers and if so will a Mac be able to read that CD? If not, and I do need to burn an .iso (which I doubt I have to) then what format from the ones listed above should I select? I searched the forum but did not have time to weed through all the results, I am on a time crunch. Thanks for your help.

Use ISO9660 + Joliet + UDF 1.02 to be on the safe side. And if you set Output to Device (i.e. "Write files/folders to disc") it'll burn directly to disc, no need to create an .iso image first.
