Seems like such a thing must exist. Preferably free? Suggestions?

My life goes smoothly and in regular intervals

In Terminal,

hdiutil convert disk.dmg -format RdWr -o disk.img

where disk.dmg is the path to your image (input)
and disk.img the output image

The Taoist Zhuangzi said, "Good order results spontaneously when things are let alone".
The sociologist, and historian, Adam Ferguson described the phenomenon of spontaneous order in society as the "result of human action, but not the execution of any human design".

I'm not familiar enough with the formats...why would one want to convert?

Disk Copy in OS9 creates compressed .img files.
Disk Utility in OSX creates compressed .dmg files.

I DO know that .img image files can be opened in OSX. I DON'T know if .dmg image files can be opened in OS9; I haven't tried.

.dmg files can be opened in 9.2.x.

there is a beta of Disk Copy 6.5bxx I believe that does. I have it on a few different machines.

If it doesn't try just renaming the type from .dmg to .img..... Or is it vice-versa?

Hey, chas, I tried it, but no luck. I'm taking a low-tech approach.
