Nope.
Yep. Toast will create an .iso image, you can then burn the image to CD on the PC.
It's irrelevant whether or not the PC can then read the disk. (The disk image type does not and is not affected by the filesystem on the disk, which you'll want to be HFS, or the hybrid HFS/ISO9660 format defaulkt for disk burner under OS X.
True, an iso disk image is "flat", so it will not be corrupted by being on the PC. But...
Create a disk image with toast, make sure it's an .iso (I've not used Toast in a dogs age, so I'm not sure what the options were)
Copy the .iso file to the PC. The burner software on the PC should burn a disk fine from the .iso image.
I've never gotten this to work. Even Roxio's Easy CD Creator was unable to burn the Roxio Toast created iso image. Maybe I was doing something wrong? Jack (m'housemate what owns the PC) spent an hour on the phone with Roxio and came up with no solution. That's why we started using DOS-formatted JAZ disks and .sit files.
FWIW, - Dan.
