  <title>ਇੱਕ CD ਜਾਂ DVD ਉੱਤੇ ਫਾਇਲਾਂ ਲਿਖਣੀਆਂ</title>

  <p>You can put files onto a blank disc by using <gui>CD/DVD Creator</gui>.
  The option to create a CD or DVD will appear in the file manager as soon as
  you place the CD into your CD/DVD writer. The file manager lets you transfer
  files to other computers or perform <link xref="backup-why">backups</link> by
  putting files onto a blank disc. To write files to a CD or DVD:</p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Place an empty disc into your CD/DVD writable drive.</p></item>
    <item>
      <p>In the <gui>Blank CD/DVD-R Disc</gui> notification that pops up at the
      bottom of the screen, select <gui>Open with CD/DVD Creator</gui>. The
      <gui>CD/DVD Creator</gui> folder window will open.</p>
      <p>(You can also click on <gui>Blank CD/DVD-R Disc</gui> under
      <gui>Devices</gui> in the file manager sidebar.)</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>In the <gui>Disc Name</gui> field, type a name for the disc.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Drag or copy the desired files into the window.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click <gui>Write to Disc</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Under <gui>Select a disc to write to</gui>, choose the blank disc.</p>
      <p>(You could choose <gui>Image file</gui> instead. This will put the
      files in a <em>disc image</em>, which will be saved on your computer. You
      can then burn that disc image onto a blank disc at a later date.)</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click <gui>Properties</gui> if you want to adjust burning speed, the
      location of temporary files, and other options. The default options
      should be fine.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>ਰਿਕਾਰਡਿੰਗ ਸ਼ੁਰੂ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ <gui>ਲਿਖੋ</gui> ਬਟਨ ਉੱਤੇ ਕਲਿੱਕ ਕਰੋ।</p>
      <p>If <gui>Burn Several Copies</gui> is selected, you will be prompted
      for additional discs.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>When the disc burning is complete, it will eject automatically. Choose
      <gui>Make More Copies</gui> or <gui>Close</gui> to exit.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

<section id="problem">
  <title>If the disc wasn't burned properly</title>

  <p>Sometimes the computer doesn't record the data correctly, and you won't be
  able to see the files you put onto the disc when you insert it into a
  computer.</p>

  <p>In this case, try burning the disc again but use a lower burning speed,
  for example, 12x rather than 48x. Burning at slower speeds is more reliable.
  You can choose the speed by clicking the <gui>Properties</gui> button in the
  <gui>CD/DVD Creator</gui> window.</p>
