Jpeg's are viewable by both Macs and Windows PCs, regardless of which OS on which they were created. However, on burning the CD you have to worry about which system will be used to read it. Your CD burner software should know this and provide ISO 9660 File Format, maybe one or two others, I forget. Alternatively, it would be possible to put everything in html on the CD, complete with links, so you'd have a confined web site. Your confusion results from mixing up graphics formats with file formats.
