Can I use K3b to make iso images of CDs? If so, how?

Yes, choose tools > burn cd image then change the image type to iso9660 image.

That burns an existing iso image, I want to make them, like what Nero 6 does when you click "save tracks".

I don't know whether k3b can, but mkisofs does
mkisofs -R -J -o my_image.iso /path/to/file(s)
Cheers,

Ok, -o sets the output image, but what is rockridge directory information and why do I need it?

Read the man-page ... that will both explain the meaning
of the option(s) and whether they're necessary or not.
