### PCx86 Disk Image Formats
|
||||
|
||||
PCx86 works best with disk images in a **JSON** format, to save conversion time, so that's the only disk image format
|
||||
you'll find in the [PCjs Project](https://github.com/jeffpar/pcjs).
|
||||
PCx86 works best with disk images in a **JSON** format, to save conversion time, so that's the
|
||||
only disk format you'll find in the [PCjs Project](https://github.com/jeffpar/pcjs).
|
||||
|
||||
If you're running the PCjs Node web server, you can convert any of our **JSON** disk images into an **IMG** file
|
||||
with the [DiskDump API](/api/v1/dump), by setting the *format* parameter set to `img` instead of `json`. For example:
|
||||
There are several ways you can convert a PCjs **JSON** disk image back into a binary **IMG** file:
|
||||
|
||||
- Load the desired disk into a PCjs machine and click the **Save** button
|
||||
- Use the [DiskDump API](/api/v1/dump) (available only in the [PCjs Node Web Server](/server.js))
|
||||
|
||||
When using the [DiskDump API](/api/v1/dump), set the *format* parameter set to `img` instead of `json`.
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
{{ site.url }}/api/v1/dump?disk=/disks/pcx86/dos/ibm/2.00/PCDOS200-DISK1.json&format=img
|
||||
|
||||
As an added bonus, the PCjs Node web server automatically provides "onclick" handlers for all links to JSON-encoded disk
|
||||
images, automatically invoking the API for you.
|
||||
The [PCjs Node Web Server](/server.js) also generates "onclick" handlers for links to **JSON** disk
|
||||
images that automatically invoke the API for you.
|
||||

||||

|
||||
[PCx86 Documentation](/docs/pcx86/) for more information about supported disks and formats.
