We solve the inverse problems to recover Dirac systems on an interval or semiaxis from their spectral functions (matrix valued functions) for the case of locally square-integrable potentials. Direct problems in terms of spectral functions are treated as well. Moreover, we present necessary and sufficient conditions on the given distribution matrix valued function to be a spectral function of some Dirac system with a locally square-integrable potential. Interesting connections with Paley-Wiener sampling measures appear in the case of scalar spectral functions.
