Creating a styled disk image each time you create a new release of your software can be a tedious process, involving the use of up to eight command-line tasks with up to four tools.

DMG Packager lets you do the whole process within one easy-to-use GUI application, from creating a dmg to preserving its window styling, compressing it and adding an SLA.

Requirements:
Adding an SLA to your dmg's requires that you have the utilities Rez and DeRez installed. (These are included as part of the standard Apple Developer Tools installation.)
You will also need a resource editor such as ResEdit, Rezilla, or ResKnife for editing SLA files.

What's New:
Can now create archives as well as disk images; including zip, tar, tgz and tbz2. Product settings offer option of packaging as Disk Image or Archive.
"Check for Updates" feature with built-in downloading.
Preference to clear previous log ouput when beginning new packaging operation.
App no longer gives impression that it's setting background pic if it isn't.
Introduced launch warnings if required system tools are not installed. (They should be with a standard OS X installation.)
Fixed bug which prevented product settings being saved after doing "Reset Product".
