Copying many files to a CD

I want to copy many picture files (JPEG) from many folders from my hard drive
onto a CD for backup. I want the original JPEG format of the file, and not a
backup. Is there some way that I can copy only the amount of files that will
fit on the targeted CD?

What burning software came with your drive?

Use the 'create a data CD' function of whatever CD burning suite that you
have. As you add pictures, it will tell you what space is left..
