ISO to TAR

Upload a ISO archive, extract it on the server, and receive a new archive in TAR format. The converter is useful when you need to repackage an archive without installing desktop software.

ISO is the most common disk image format. This file format is defined by the International Standards Organization. The name of the format is an abbreviation of the full name of this international organization. The function of ISO files is to create a data image of a CD or DVD disc. These files contain an exact copy of a real CD or DVD disc. It includes complete data, file system information, directory structure, file attributes and boot information. The created image copies every bit of the CD from the original media.

TAR is a file format of the archived and compressed categories. The original name this format bears is Consolidated Unix File Archive. Its developer is Jean-loup Gailly. Specialized software packages for Unix are used to create files of the specified format. In fact, this is the generally accepted standard archive file format on a Unix extension system. The direct purpose of TAR-format files is to create file system archives. TAR files store detailed information, from the directory structure to timestamps.
