What is DMG file?
The .DMG (Disk Image) file extension is a type of image format commonly associated with Mac OS X. It is used to store the compressed contents of an entire directory—including files, folders, and custom layout options—into a disk image file. With an efficient disk imaging system, users can copy and store entire hard disk systems with minimal effort. This file format provides users with quick and easy access to some content.

What is MDX file?
The MDX file extension (.MDX) stands for the Extended Media Descriptor File, a Power Desinger object file which extends the EMF technology. It was commonly used, prior to Microsoft DirectX, as a means of displaying several 2D objects and scenes on the user's computer. They were usually used as a concise way of defining web page objects like animations, graphics and web page layout. [ ⏩ ] MDX file extension
Software, that you can use to convert
How to convert the file from DMG to MDX?
To successfully convert the DMG file to MDX, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.DMG). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case MDX (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than MDX).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. DMG to MDX. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting DMG files to MDX files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension MDX, while before this step we had the DMG file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new MDX file, or not.
