PUID deprecated. Please see fmt/115 for information on OS/2 Bitmap 1.0 and Windows Bitmap 2.0. The only difference between Windows bitmap 2.0 and OS/2 bitmap 1.0 is the data type of the width and height fields of the bitmap header – for Windows 2.0 bitmaps they are signed short integers, for OS/2 1.0 bitmaps they are unsigned shorts. For positive numbers the representation is the same. Consequently, the file formats cannot be distinguished with a file signature test. The PUID for OS/2 Bitmap 1.0 has therefore been deprecated.

AutoCAD Design Web Format (DWF) version 6 is the publishing format of Autodesk software, especially design data, such as 2D vector data, 3D vector data, animations, and metadata. It uses the ZIP file format as the backing store mechanism. The content can be roughly divided into: • DWF metadata files – XML files that contain information pertaining to metadata and structure (author, title, creation time, section dependencies, section ordering, resource file descriptions, roles, MIME types, etc.) and pertaining to the section (page information, design metadata, etc.). The structural metadata is used to create logical objects (collections of files to represent a part or page, etc.). • Resource files – media or other content files that are referenced from the package/section metadata and are usually presentations of design data in various formats (ZGL, W2D, JPG, PNG, AVI, XML, TXT, DOC, etc.) A DWF package must meet the following requirements: • The first 12 bytes of the physical package file must contain the DWF version header. • A manifest.xml file at the root of the zip archive that complies to the manifest.xsd schema • File contents logically organized into sections, one for each component of the composite design. • At least one resource file. • The manifest must contain an <Interfaces> element containing at least one <Interface> sub element that indicates a document interface supported by the DWF package. An example would be the ‘ePlot’ document interface, which implies that the DWF contains at least one valid ePlot page.

Powerpoint format is a presentation format developed by Microsoft. Powerpoint 95 format is the native format of Powerpoint 95. The format is proprietary and Microsoft does not make details of its structure public. The information here is derived primarily from OpenOffice.org's reverse-engineered documentation of the format and should not therefore be regarded as definitive. Powerpoint 95 is based on Microsoft’s generic OLE2 Compound Document Format. A Powerpoint presentation is stored as a ‘PowerPoint Document’ stream within a Compound Document Format file.

Powerpoint format is a presentation format developed by Microsoft. Powerpoint 97-2002 format is the native format of Powerpoint 97 onwards. The format is proprietary and Microsoft does not make details of its structure public. Currently PRONOM cannot differentiate Microsoft Powerpoint Presentation 97-2003 and Microsoft Powerpoint Show by signatures. This means Microsoft Powerpoint Show files with extensions of pps will likely identify as the Microsoft Powerpoint Presentation 97-2003 PUID. Further research may be able to address this.

AutoCAD slide files are screen images. A slide file consists of a header portion and one or more data records of variable length. Data records follow the header. Each data record begins with a field whose high-order byte is the record type. If a slide contains any vectors at all, a New colour record will be the first data record. The order of the vectors in a slide, and the order of the endpoints of those vectors, may vary. The slide format described in the previous paragraph is produced by AutoCAD Release 9 and later, and is portable among all computers running AutoCAD Release 9 or later. Previous versions of AutoCAD (as well as AutoShade 1.0 and AutoSketch 1.02) produce slides with a somewhat different header. Note that the old-format header does not contain a Test number field. The floating-point aspect ratio value and all 2-byte integers are written in the native format of the CPU that was used to create the file (for 8086-family CPUs, IEEE double-precision, and low-order byte first). Old-format slide files are not portable across machine types, but they can be read by any version of AutoCAD running on the same CPU type as the CPU with which the slide was created.

The Audio Interchange File Format (Audio IFF) was developed by Apple Computer, Inc., and provides a standard for storing sampled sounds. The format allows for the storage of monaural or multichannel sampled sounds at a variety of sample rates and sample widths. Audio IFF was designed to serve primarily as an interchange format. Audio IFF conforms to the "EA IFF 85" Standard for Interchange Format Files developed by Electronic Arts. The audio data in a standard AIFF file is uncompressed pulse-code modulation (PCM). There is also a compressed variant of AIFF known as AIFF-C or AIFC, with various defined compression codecs. File specifications available at http://www-mmsp.ece.mcgill.ca/documents/audioformats/aiff/Docs/AIFF-1.3.pdf This format is currently deprecated in favour of fmt/414 in order to remove a multiple identification conflict. Differences between version 1.2 and 1.3 relate to Apple II-specific application implementation. See the full specification for details. 04 Jan 1989 Apple Computer, Inc. Apple Computer, Inc.

Computer Graphics Metafile (CGM) is a standardized platform-independent format used for the interchange of raster and vector data. CGM was developed under the auspices of the International Standards Organization (ISO) and the American Standards National Institute (ANSI). It is also used in conjunction with a variety of input and output devices. Although CGM incorporates extensions designed to support raster data storage, files in CGM format are used primarily to store vector information. CGM files typically contain either bitmap or vector data, but rarely both. It uses Clear Text Encoding.

Initial Graphics Exchange Specification, or IGES, establishes information structures for the digital representation and exchange of product definition data. It supports exchanging this data among Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAD and CAM, respectively) systems. IGES defines file structure and language formats to represent geometric, topographical, and non-geometric product definition data. These formats are independent of the modeling method used, and they support data exchange using physical media or electronic communication protocols. 01 Dec 1999 unknown The National Archives and Records Administration / The National Archives and Records Administration 02 Aug 2005 28 Aug 2012 Further information about this file format can be obtained at http://www.wiz-worx.com/iges5x/version5x/version5x.pdf

The Paint Shop Pro (PSP) file format is an extremely rich graphics file format that is capable of describing a multi-layered image document in minute detail. The format facilitates the retention of a great deal of information, including layer bitmaps, layer masks, layer grouping information, a sample thumbnail, image dimension, image resolution, creator name, copyright owner, image description, masks, selections, alpha channels, etc. The PSP format supports storing an image document in an uncompressed format or, to reduce the size of the file, in either Run Length Encoding (RLE) or LZ77 compressed format. As each of these is a lossless storage method, the PSP format always maintains the original quality of stored image documents. Finally, the PSP format supports storing image bitmaps at a variety of bit depths, including 24 bit colour (16.7 million colours), 8 bit colour (256 colour), 8 bit greyscale (256 greys), 4 bit colour (16 colours) and 1 bit colour (2 colours).

A shapefile stores none topological geometry and attribute information for the spatial features in a data set. The geometry for a feature is stored as a shape comprising a set of vector coordinates. Shapefiles can support point, line, and area features. Area features are represented as closed loop, double-digitized polygons. Attributes are held in a dBASE format file. An ESRI shapefile consists of a main file, an index file, and a dBASE table. The main file is a direct access, variable-record-length file in which each record describes a shape with a list of its vertices. In the index file, each record contains the offset of the corresponding main file record from the beginning of the main file. The dBASE table contains feature attributes with one record per feature. The one-to-one relationship between geometry and attributes is based on record number. Attribute records in the dBASE file must be in the same order as records in the main file.

Encapsulated Postscript (EPS) is a page description format, developed by Adobe Systems Incorporated. Version 3, the third version of the format, was developed in 1992, and subsequently revised in 1999 to include a number of extensions and features of the PostScript language not previously documented. An EPS file comprises a header section followed by a PostScript document. The header can refer to version 3.0 or version 3.1. An EPS can optionally include a preview raster image, in which case a binary header is prepended to the header. 01 May 1992 Adobe Systems Incorporated Adobe Systems Incorporated Page Description Encapsulated PostScript File Format Specification: Version 3.0 Adobe Systems Incorporated Adobe Systems Incorporated 01 May 1992 http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/ps/5002.EPSF_Spec.pdf Authoritative Public unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 02 Aug 2005 26 Feb 2013

NB. The signature byte sequence is currently massaged to steer around the known PRONOM bug in the area of right fragment matching when the longest fragment is not nearest EOF. The first fragment in the EOF byte sequence has been shortened by 1 byte to ensure that the subsequent fragment is the longest. This abbreviation does not reduce the overall signature strength too much and so will hopefully not result in any false pisitive identification. When the PRONOM bug has been fixed, the "504B01" at the start of the EOF byte sequence should be extended to "504B0102", and this note reduced.

The 2 byte file type identifier BM indicates that the BMP was created by OS/2 or Windows. Windows 3.x, Windows NT, and OS/2 2.x BMP files only vary in the number of fields in the bitmap header and in the interpretation of the compression field. Bitmap headerSize is 12 for Windows 2.x BMP and OS/2 1.x BMP, 40 for Windows 3.x and Windows NT BMP, 12 to 64 for OS/2 2.x BMP, and 108 for Windows 4.x BMP. Only OS/2 2.x bitmaps have Bitmap header size of 16 and 64. If Bitmap header size is 40, only OS/2 Bitmaps can use 24-bit RLE compression on 24-bit pixel bitmaps and only oS/2 bitmaps can use Huffman 1D compression on 1-bit per pixel (monochrome) bitmaps.

The Paint Shop Pro (PSP) file format is an extremely rich graphics file format that is capable of describing a multi-layered image document in minute detail. The format facilitates the retention of a great deal of information, including layer bitmaps, layer masks, layer vector data, layer adjustment data, layer grouping information, multiple sample thumbnails, multiple sample composite images, image dimension, image resolution, creator name, copyright owner, image description, EXIF information, masks, selections, alpha channels, etc. The PSP format supports storing image bitmaps in an uncompressed format or, to reduce the size of the file, in either Run Length Encoding (RLE) or LZ77 compressed format. As each of these is a lossless storage method, the PSP format always maintains the original quality of stored image documents. Finally, the PSP format supports storing image bitmaps at a variety of bit depths, including 24-bit colour (16.7 million colours), 8-bit colour (256 colour), 8-bit greyscale (256 greys), 4-bit colour (16 colours), and 1-bit colour (2 colours).

fmt/160 application/x-dvi TeX/LaTeX Device Independent Document DVI 532 dvi TeX/LaTeX Device-Independent Document Opcode 0xF7, pre (the preamble) must be the first opcode in the DVI file. It takes at least fourteen bytes of parameters, plus an optional comment of up to 255 bytes. The first parameter is 1 byte that identifies DVI format; currently this byte is always set to 0x02. Opcode 0xF9, post_postamble is the last opcode of the dvi file. It is followed by a 4 byte pointer to the post command that started the postamble. An identification byte, comes next, which currently equals 0x02. The identification byte is followed by four or more bytes that are all equal to 0xDF. TeX puts out four to seven of these trailing bytes, until the total length of the file is a multiple of four bytes.

The Device Independent File Format (DVI) is the output file format of the TeX typesetting program. DVI files comprise binary data describing the visual layout of a document in a device-independent manner. A DVI file consists of a preamble, a sequence of commands defining one or more pages of text, and a postamble. Each command comprises an eight-bit opcode, followed by zero or more bytes of parameters. DVI driver software is required to render or print DVI files, or to convert them to other formats, such as PostScript or PDF. 01 Jan 1979 Page Description unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 02 Aug 2005 16 Mar 2012

The Paint Shop Pro (PSP) file format is an extremely rich graphics file format that is capable of describing a multi-layered image document in minute detail. The format facilitates the retention of a great deal of information, including layer bitmaps, layer masks, layer vector data, layer adjustment data, layer grouping information, multiple sample thumbnails, multiple sample composite images, image dimension, image resolution, creator name, copyright owner, image description, masks, selections, alpha channels, etc. The PSP format supports storing image bitmaps in an uncompressed format or, to reduce the size of the file, in either Run Length Encoding (RLE) or LZ77 compressed format. As each of these is a lossless storage method, the PSP format always maintains the original quality of stored image documents. Finally, the PSP format supports storing image bitmaps at a variety of bit depths, including 24-bit colour (16.7 million colours), 8-bit colour (256 colour), 8-bit greyscale (256 greys), 4-bit colour (16 colours), and 1-bit colour (2 colours).

SVG is a language for describing two-dimensional graphics in XML. SVG allows for three types of graphic objects: vector graphic shapes (e.g., paths consisting of straight lines and curves), images and text. Graphical objects can be grouped, styled, transformed and composited into previously rendered objects. The feature set includes nested transformations, clipping paths, alpha masks, filter effects and template objects. SVG drawings can be interactive and dynamic. Animations can be defined and triggered either declaratively (i.e., by embedding SVG animation elements in SVG content) or via scripting.

Portable Document Format is a platform-independent format for representing formatted documents, developed by Adobe Systems Incorporated. It is the native format of Adobe’s Acrobat family of software products, version 1.6 corresponding to the release of Acrobat 7.0. PDF is based on, and shares the same imaging model as, the PostScript page description language. A PDF file comprises a Header section, a Body section containing the objects which make up the document, a Cross Reference Table, and a Trailer section. PDF files can contain a wide variety of content, including text, images, video and audio. 01 Jan 2004 Adobe Systems Incorporated Adobe Systems Incorporated 1275 1276 1277 1278 1279 1280 Page Description PDF Reference, fifth edition: Adobe Portable Document Format, Version 1.6 Adobe Systems Incorporated Adobe Systems Incorporated 14 Nov 2004 Authoritative Public unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 11 Mar 2005 22 Oct 2009

The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a general purpose markup language for creating other, special purpose, markup languages, and is a simplified subset of SGML. The structure and grammar of an XML document can be defined using a markup declaration, such as a Document Type Definition (DTD) or XML schema. A XML document consists of nested elements, each of which may have attributes and content. It typically begins with an XML declaration, defining the XML version and character set used. This may be followed by a Document Type declaration, containing or pointing to a markup declaration for the class of document. An XML document is said to be well-formed if it conforms to the XML specification; it is said to be valid if it additionally complies with a defined markup declaration. The formatting and transformation of XML documents can be controlled using the Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL). 04 Feb 2004 World Wide Web Consortium World Wide Web Consortium 1283 Text (Mark-up) W3C Recommendation: Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0 (Third Edition) W3C Recommendation 04 February 2004 World Wide Web Consortium World Wide Web Consortium 04 Feb 2004 http://www.w3.org/TR/2004/REC-xml-20040204/ Authoritative Public unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 11 Mar 2005 02 Aug 2005

The HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is a markup language designed for the rendering of information via a web browser. It was originally defined as a highly simplified subset of SGML, but is now an international standard, and is maintained by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). A HTML document consists of nested elements, each of which may have attributes and content. The notion of a generic HTML format is used here to define HTML documents which pre-date the first formal specification (HTML 2.0), or which otherwise to do not fully conform to any formal specifications.

Waveform Audio (WAVE) is a chunk-based audio format developed by Microsoft, based on the generic Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF) specification developed by Microsoft and IBM. Structurally, a WAVE file is composed of a number of chunks, each comprising a four character code chunk identifier, the chunk size, and the chunk data. It comprises a RIFF header with a WAVE data type identifier, followed by a series of chunks. Every file must include a Format chunk, which describes the format of the audio data, and a Data chunk, containing the audio data itself. Other optional chunks are also allowed. The format supports a wide variety of compressed and uncompressed audio encodings. 784 785 786 Audio unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 11 Mar 2005 02 Aug 2005

Broadcast WAVE is a chunk-based audio format developed by the European Broadcasting Union, and based on the Microsoft WAVE format, which is in turn based on the generic Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF) specification developed by Microsoft and IBM. Structurally, a BWAVE file is composed of a number of chunks, each comprising a four character code chunk identifier, the chunk size, and the chunk data. It comprises a RIFF header with a WAVE data type identifier, followed by a series of chunks. Every file must include a Broadcast Audio Extension chunk, containing metadata required for exchange of information between broadcasters, a Format chunk, which describes the format of the audio data, and a Data chunk, containing the audio data itself. BWAVE files which contain MPEG-encoded audio data must also include a Fact chunk, containing file-dependent information about the audio data, and an MPEG Audio Extension chunk, containing extra information required to describe the MPEG encoding. A BWAVE identified as generic by DROID likely uses an encoding format unknown to PRONOM, or perhaps a structural difference, and users are encouraged to let the PRONOM team know should this occur. 01 Jul 2001 Audio Technical Specification 3285: BWF - a format for audio data files in broadcasting, Version 1 European Broadcasting Union European Broadcasting Union 01 Jul 2001 http://www.ebu.ch/CMSimages/en/tec_doc_t3285_tcm6-10544.pdf Authoritative Public Technical Specification 3285: Specification of the Broadcast Wave Format - a format for audio data files in broadcasting, Supplement 1 - MPEG audio European Broadcasting Union European Broadcasting Union 01 Jul 1997 http://www.ebu.ch/CMSimages/en/tec_doc_t3285_s1_tcm6-10545.pdf Authoritative Public Technical Specification 3285: BWF - a format for audio data files in broadcasting, Supplement 2 - capturing report European Broadcasting Union European Broadcasting Union 01 Jul 2001 http://www.ebu.ch/CMSimages/en/tec_doc_t3285_s2_tcm6-10482.pdf Authoritative Public Technical Specification 3285: BWF - a format for audio data files in broadcasting, Supplement 3 - Peak Envelope Chunk European Broadcasting Union European Broadcasting Union 01 Jul 2001 http://www.ebu.ch/CMSimages/en/tec_doc_t3285_s3_tcm6-10483.pdf Authoritative Public Technical Specification 3285: Specification of the Broadcast Wave Format - a format for audio data files in broadcasting, Supplement 4 - <link> Chunk European Broadcasting Union European Broadcasting Union 01 Apr 2003 http://www.ebu.ch/CMSimages/en/tec_doc_t3285_s4_tcm6-10484.pdf Authoritative Public Technical Specification 3285: Specification of the Broadcast Wave Format - a format for audio data files in broadcasting, Supplement 5 - <axml> Chunk European Broadcasting Union European Broadcasting Union 01 Jul 2003 http://www.ebu.ch/CMSimages/en/tec_doc_t3285_s5_tcm6-10485.pdf Authoritative Public unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 11 Mar 2005 19 Jul 2013

The QuickTime file format is a format for storing multimedia content, principally video, developed by Apple. The basic data unit in a QuickTime file is the atom. Each atom contains size and type information along with its data. The size field indicates the number of bytes in the atom, including the size and type fields. The type field specifies the type of data stored in the atom and, by implication, the format of that data. Atoms are hierarchical in nature. That is, one atom can contain one or more other atoms of varying types. For example, a movie atom contains one track atom for each track in the movie. The track atoms, in turn, contain one or more media atoms each, along with other atoms that define other track and movie characteristics. This hierarchical structure of atoms is referred to as a containment hierarchy. A QuickTime file is simply a collection of atoms. QuickTime does not impose any rules about the order of these atoms.

MPEG-1 is a lossy compression standard for video and audio, intended for use in Digital Storage Media (DSM) such as VideoCD and DVD (at the same encoding standard as VCD). It is designed to handle video frame-sizes of 352 x 288px, at a frame-rate of 25 frames per second (PAL) and a data rate of around 1.2Mbits/s; audio: up to 320 kbits/s (MPEG-1 Audio Layer III, *.mp3). MPEG-1 supports random access to stream content on playback. MPEG-1 Video supports only 'progressive' frame video. MPEG-1 compression can be relatively inefficient by modern standards. An MPG-1 ‘Program’ stream (PS) file (*.mpg, *.mpeg) generally contain both video and audio streams, generally for synchronised playback, and may carry a variety of other data (e.g. video captions).

MPEG-2 is a lossy compression standard (an improvement and expansion of the MPEG-1 standard) designed for the generic coding of video and audio and intended to cover a wide scope of application, including: video production, broadcast and editing. Streams are at potentially higher bitrates than MPEG-1 but more efficient compression making it suited to High Definition video. MPEG-2 Video supports both 'progressive' and 'interlaced' frame video.

The Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) is a language for describing multi-participant interactive simulations - virtual worlds networked via the global Internet and hyper-linked with the World Wide Web. All aspects of virtual world display, interaction and internetworking can be specified using VRML. It was created with the goal of becoming the standard language for interactive simulation within the World Wide Web. The first version of VRML allows for the creation of virtual worlds with limited interactive behaviour. These worlds can contain objects which have hyper-links to other worlds, HTML documents or other valid MIME types. Nodes are arranged in hierarchical structures called scene graphs, which also define an ordering of the nodes. unknown The National Archives and Records Administration / The National Archives and Records Administration 11 Mar 2005 11 Jun 2012 Specifications link: http://www.web3d.org/x3d/specifications/vrml/VRML1.0/index.html

The Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) is a file format for describing 3D interactive worlds and objects. It may be used in conjunction with the World Wide Web. It may be used to create three-dimensional representations of complex scenes such as illustrations, product definition and virtual reality presentations. VRML is capable of representing static and animated objects and it can have hyperlinks to other media such as sound, movies, and image. Interpreters (browsers) for VRML are widely available for many different platforms as well as authoring tools for the creation VRML files. VRML supports an extensibility model that allows new objects to be defined and a registration process to allow application communities to develop interoperable extensions to the base standard. There is a mapping between VRML elements and commonly used 3D application programmer interface (API) features. unknown The National Archives and Records Administration / The National Archives and Records Administration 11 Mar 2005 11 Jun 2012 Specifications link: http://graphcomp.com/info/specs/sgi/vrml/spec/ Version 2.0 is the same file format as version 97

The JPEG File Interchange Format (JFIF) is a file format for storing JPEG-compressed raster images. It was developed by the Independent JPEG Group and C-Cube Microsystems, in the absence of any such format being defined in the JPEG standard, and rapidly became a de facto standard; this is what is commonly referred to as the JPEG file format. A JFIF file comprises a JPEG data stream together with a JFIF marker. It begins with a Start of Image (SOI) marker, immediately followed by a JFIF Application (APP0). This is followed by the JPEG image data, which is terminated by an End of Image (EOI) marker. JFIF supports up to 24-bit colour and uses lossy compression (based on the Discrete Cosine Transform algorithm). Other types of compression are available through JPEG extensions, including progressive image buildup, arithmetic encoding, variable quantization, selective refinement, image tiling, and lossless compression, but these may not be supported by all JFIF readers and writers.

The JPEG File Interchange Format (JFIF) is a file format for storing JPEG-compressed raster images. It was developed by the Independent JPEG Group and C-Cube Microsystems, in the absence of any such format being defined in the JPEG standard, and rapidly became a de facto standard. A JFIF file comprises a JPEG data stream together with a JFIF marker. It begins with a Start of Image (SOI) marker, immediately followed by a JFIF Application (APP0) marker and one or more optional application extension markers. This is followed by the JPEG image data, which is terminated by an End of Image (EOI) marker. JFIF supports up to 24-bit colour and uses lossy compression (based on the Discrete Cosine Transform algorithm). Other types of compression are available through JPEG extensions, including progressive image buildup, arithmetic encoding, variable quantization, selective refinement, image tiling, and lossless compression, but these may not be supported by all JFIF readers and writers. 01 Sep 1992 C-Cube Microsystems C-Cube Microsystems Image (Raster) JPEG File Interchange Format, Version 1.02, C-Cube Microsystems Eric Hamilton / C-Cube Microsystems C-Cube Microsystems 01 Sep 1992 Authoritative Public unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 11 Mar 2005 02 Aug 2005

The JPEG 2000 file format (JP2 file format) provides a foundation for storing application specific data (metadata) in association with a JPEG 2000 codestream, such as information which is required to display the image. The JP2 file format encapsulates the JPEG 2000 codestream along with other core pieces of information about that codestream. The building-block of the JP2 file format is called a box; all information contained within the format is contained in boxes. There are several different box types; some boxes contain other boxes. The binary structure of a file is a contiguous sequence of boxes. The start of the first box is the first byte of the file, and the last byte of the last box is the last byte of the file. 15 Sep 2004 Image (Raster) unknown The National Archives and Records Administration / The National Archives and Records Administration 11 Mar 2005 28 Aug 2012

The Advanced Systems Format is an extensible file format developed by Microsoft for storing multimedia data streams. It comprises a Header Object, which describes the properties of the data streams, a Data Object, which contains the actual data streams stored in Data Packets and, optionally, one or more Index Objects. ASF files can contain audio, video and still image data streams, and the format supports streaming across networks. ASF supports a variety of audio, video and still image compression types, although it is most widely used for storing Windows Media Audio and Video encoded data. 01 Nov 2004 Microsoft Corporation Microsoft Corporation 692 693 Audio, Image (Raster), Video Advanced Systems Format (ASF) Specification: Revision 01.20.03 Microsoft Corporation Microsoft Corporation 01 Dec 2004 http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/format/asfspec.aspx Authoritative Public unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 11 Mar 2005 02 Aug 2005

Windows bitmap 2.0 and OS/2 bitmap 1.0 are effectively the same format - the only difference is the data type of the width and height fields of the bitmap header – for Windows 2.0 bitmaps they are signed short integers, for OS/2 1.0 bitmaps they are unsigned shorts. For positive numbers the representation is the same. Consequently, the file formats cannot be distinguished with a file signature test. The PUID for OS/2 Bitmap 1.0 (x-fmt/25) has therefore been deprecated. Image (Raster) unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 11 Mar 2005 11 Jul 2011

Broadcast WAVE is a chunk-based audio format developed by the European Broadcasting Union, and based on the Microsoft WAVE format, which is in turn based on the generic Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF) specification developed by Microsoft and IBM. Structurally, a BWAVE file is composed of a number of chunks, each comprising a four character code chunk identifier, the chunk size, and the chunk data. It comprises a RIFF header with a WAVE data type identifier, followed by a series of chunks. Every file must include a Broadcast Audio Extension chunk, containing metadata required for exchange of information between broadcasters, a Format chunk, which describes the format of the audio data, and a Data chunk, containing the audio data itself. BWAVE files which contain MPEG-encoded audio data must also include a Fact chunk, containing file-dependent information about the audio data, and an MPEG Audio Extension chunk, containing extra information required to describe the MPEG encoding. A BWAVE identified as generic by DROID likely uses an encoding format unknown to PRONOM, or perhaps a structural difference, and users are encouraged to let the PRONOM team know should this occur. 01 Jan 1997 Audio Technical Specification 3285: BWF - a format for audio data files in broadcasting, Version 1 European Broadcasting Union European Broadcasting Union 01 Jul 2001 http://www.ebu.ch/CMSimages/en/tec_doc_t3285_tcm6-10544.pdf Authoritative Public Technical Specification 3285: Specification of the Broadcast Wave Format - a format for audio data files in broadcasting, Supplement 1 - MPEG audio European Broadcasting Union European Broadcasting Union 01 Jul 1997 http://www.ebu.ch/CMSimages/en/tec_doc_t3285_s1_tcm6-10545.pdf Authoritative Public Technical Specification 3285: BWF - a format for audio data files in broadcasting, Supplement 2 - capturing report European Broadcasting Union European Broadcasting Union 01 Jul 2001 http://www.ebu.ch/CMSimages/en/tec_doc_t3285_s2_tcm6-10482.pdf Authoritative Public Technical Specification 3285: BWF - a format for audio data files in broadcasting, Supplement 3 - Peak Envelope Chunk European Broadcasting Union European Broadcasting Union 01 Jul 2001 http://www.ebu.ch/CMSimages/en/tec_doc_t3285_s3_tcm6-10483.pdf Authoritative Public Technical Specification 3285: Specification of the Broadcast Wave Format - a format for audio data files in broadcasting, Supplement 4 - <link> Chunk European Broadcasting Union European Broadcasting Union 01 Apr 2003 http://www.ebu.ch/CMSimages/en/tec_doc_t3285_s4_tcm6-10484.pdf Authoritative Public Technical Specification 3285: Specification of the Broadcast Wave Format - a format for audio data files in broadcasting, Supplement 5 - <axml> Chunk European Broadcasting Union European Broadcasting Union 01 Jul 2003 http://www.ebu.ch/CMSimages/en/tec_doc_t3285_s5_tcm6-10485.pdf Authoritative Public unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 11 Mar 2005 19 Jul 2013

Binary DXF format is the binary encoded variant of the Drawing Interchange File Format, an exchange format for vector graphics developed by AutoDesk. They are probably the widely-used formats for exchanging vector data, and have become a de-facto industry standard. The format is owned by AutoDesk and typically changes with each release of their AutoCAD family of products. DXF files contain a tagged representation of the vector data. The structure comprises a Header section, followed by sections containing data on Classes, Tables, Blocks, Entities and, optionally, thumbnail images. Each section contains a series of data elements. each preceded by a group code tag, which indicates the type of data element. Binary DXF was first developed in AutoCAD Release 10.

Rich Text Format (RTF) is a format developed by Microsoft to encode formatted text and graphics for use within applications or for data and formatting transfer between applications. It is closely associated with Microsoft Word, and new versions are developed with each release of Word. RTF files are encoded in plain text, typically ASCII, and consists of a series of control words, control symbols and groups. An RTF file comprises a Header section, containing various header tables, followed by a Document section, containing the document content and formatting. RTF version 1.8 is the version of the format associated with Microsoft Word 2003.

The Drawing Interchange Binary Format (DXB) is a vector graphics format developed by AutoDesk for its AutoCAD family of products. A DXB file comprises a file header followed by zero or more data records. Each data record begins with a single byte identifying the record type, followed by one or more data items.

ASCII DXF format is the ASCII encoded variant of the Drawing Interchange File Format, an exchange format for vector graphics developed by AutoDesk. They are probably the widely-used formats for exchanging vector data, and have become a de-facto industry standard. The format is owned by AutoDesk and typically changes with each release of their AutoCAD family of products. DXF files contain a tagged representation of the vector data. The structure comprises a Header section, followed by sections containing data on Classes, Tables, Blocks, Entities and, optionally, thumbnail images. Each section contains a series of data elements. each preceded by a group code tag, which indicates the type of data element. It is not mandatory for ASCII DXF files to include a version identifier - some DXF files may therefore be identifiable only as generic DXF.

The OLE2 Compound Document Format is a generic document format developed by Microsoft as the underlying native binary format for many of its Office applications. The format is proprietary and Microsoft does not make details of its structure public. The information here is derived primarily from OpenOffice.org's reverse-engineered documentation of the format and should not therefore be regarded as definitive. A Compound Document acts as a file system in which independent data streams are organised within a hierarchy of containers, called storages. All storages and streams are contained within a parent Root Storage. A Directory Stream indexes every stream and storage in the file. A Compound Document begins with the Compound Document Header, including pointers to the location of the Directory Stream and Master Sector Allocation Table. The remainder of the file is organised into Sectors, the positions of which are defined in the Sector Allocation Table and Master Sector Allocation Table.

The DROID Signature File format is a format for storing internal and external signatures used by the DROID software tool to perform automatic file format identification. It was developed by The National Archives of the UK. DROID Signature Files are generated by TNA from the PRONOM technical registry, and are issued periodically as new formats are added to the registry. A DROID Signature File is an XML document, comprising an 'FFSignatureFile' element, which describes the version number and date of the signature file, an 'InternalSignatureCollection' element, which contains the set of internal signature values, and a 'FileFormatCollection' element, which contains information on the set of formats described, together with their associated external signatures. The version number of a Signature File is incremented each time a new signature file is issued from the PRONOM registry, and does not indicate a different version of the format itself. 17 Sep 2005 Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives The National Archives Text (Mark-up) Automatic format identification using PRONOM and DROID 17 Sep 2005 http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/aboutapps/fileformat/pdf/automatic_format_identification.pdf Authoritative Public unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 11 Oct 2005 11 Oct 2005

The signature byte sequence is currently massaged to steer around the known PRONOM bug in the are of the left fragment matching when the longest fragment is not nearest BOF. The last fragment in the BOF byte sequence has been shortened by 2 bytes to ensure that the first fragment is the longest. This abbreviation does not reduce the overall signature strength too much and so will hopefully not result in any false positive identification. When the PRONOM bug has been fixed, "0D0A" should be appended to the BOF byte sequence and this note reduced.

The DROID File Collection File format is a format for storing the results of file format identifications generated by the DROID software tool. It was developed by The National Archives of the UK. A DROID File Collection File is an XML document, comprising a 'FileCollection' element, which describes the version of DROID and Signature File version number used to perform the identifications number, and date on which the identifications were generated. This element contains a 'File' element for each file being identified. A File Collection File may either be generated prior to identification, in which case each 'File' element simply contains the fully-qualified pathname of the file, or it can be generated after identification, in which case each 'File' element additionally contains the identification result. 17 Sep 2005 Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives The National Archives Text (Mark-up) Automatic format identification using PRONOM and DROID 17 Sep 2005 http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/aboutapps/fileformat/pdf/automatic_format_identification.pdf Authoritative Public unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 11 Oct 2005 11 Oct 2005

fmt/149 JTIP (JPEG Tiled Image Pyramid) JTIP 792

JTIP is a multi-resolution format, created for image presentation with easy transfer and handling, based on SPIFF. It allows presentation of images in various sizes and resolutions from vignette (1/16 screen size, used for browsing) through imagette (1/4 screen, for image comparison), to full screen and higher resolution images. Each layer is divided into tiles so the user can zoom or pan easily. A file contains an internal ID for tiles, with each tile associated with a single file header and separated by markers. Under header there can be and optional table noting the tile offsets, or an external ID for separate files. JTIP is not widely used and is no longer supported.

A standard for lossless or near-lossless compression of images, also known as ISO/IEC 14495-1 and ITU Recommendation T.87, created by the Joint Photographics Experts Group (JPEG). It was developed as a low complexity lossless image compression standard in 1999, and was based on LOCO-I algorithm. JPEG-LS also provides a lossy mode. It has faster compression than JPEG 2000 and is considered better than the original lossless JPEG standard.

The Digital Negative (DNG) Specification describes a non-proprietary file format for storing camera raw files that can be used by a wide range of hardware and software vendors. DNG is an extension of the TIFF format, and is compatible with the TIFF-EP standard. This version was published in February 2005 and corrected the flaws in the first version. It has proved capable of representing raw images for a large variety of cameras (both when written in-camera or via conversion from other raw image formats) for a few years, and it is the version still typically written in-camera. 612 Image (Raster) unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 02 Feb 2007 11 Jun 2012

Created by Apple, TrueType Font files are a sequence of concatenated tables (a table is a sequence of words; each table must be long aligned and padded with zeroes if necessary). The first of the tables is the font directory, a special table that facilitates access to the other tables in the font. The directory is followed by a sequence of tables containing the font data. These tables can appear in any order. Certain tables are required for all fonts. Others are optional depending upon the functionality expected of a particular font. The tables have names known as tags. Tags have the type uint32. Currently defined tag names consist of four characters. Tag names with less than four characters have trailing spaces. When tag names are shown in text they are enclosed in straight quotes. Tables that are required must appear in any valid TrueType font file. Also notable is that Apple makes a distinction between a "TrueType font" (which refers to a particular font outline definition technology) and an "sfnt-housed font," which refers to any font which uses the same packaging format as a TrueType font: that is, it uses the same directory structure and the same table format and meaning for any tables present. 18 Dec 2003 Apple Computer, Inc.

Software-Independent Archiving of Relational Databases is a format for storing content of relational databases in files for long-term preservation e.g. in archives. The format was developed by the Swiss Federal Archives. It is an open standard and is supported by the SIARD software of the Swiss Federal Archives. SIARD format is a ZIP file (based on the 64 bit extension of the ZIP format introduced by PkWare Inc. with version 4.5 of the ZIP format definition in order to avoid size limitations which are unrealistic for databases). The ZIP file contains an XML file describing the database structure (database metadata) as well as a collection of XML files describing the table content (database primary data) as well as - optionally - some text files and some binary files representing database large objects (BLOBs and CLOBs). SIARD format is used for archiving databases adhering to the SQL (ideally SQL:1999 core) standard.

Microsoft developed office Open XML (OOXML) in 2007. It is an XML based format representing a departure from previous Microsoft Office suites, which were binary file based. Starting with Microsoft Office 2007, the Office Open XML file formats have become the default file format of Microsoft Office. The ISO standard for OOXML is ISO/IEC DIS 29500. An OOXML file format consists of a compressed zip archive that is designated according to which file type it is. OOXML uses three custom XML based languages to describe its’ three document types. WordProcessingML, SpreadsheetML and PresentationML are each used to describe Word, Excel and PowerPoint Presentation files respectively. OOXML is not an open format but the specification and development rights have been released under Microsoft’s Covenant not to Sue. OOXML is platform independent.

Adobe FrameMaker format is a desktop publishing and word processing format originally developed by Frame Technology Corp. Frame Technology Corp was bought by Adobe Systems in 1995, who continued to develop and support FrameMaker. This version of FrameMaker was used by professional designers and technical writers for writing documents that require’ substantial, standardised and structured content. FrameMaker 5.0 uses XML and SGML concepts. Documentation for FrameMaker 5.0 was integrated into the user manual that was bundled with the software. FrameMaker 5.0 introduced online help, long filename support in Windows 95, OLE support, save to HTML and import text by reference.

KML is an Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) sponsored xml schema file format used to display geographic data in an earth browser, such as Google Earth, Google Maps, and Google Maps for mobile. A KML file is processed in much the same way that HTML (and XML) files are processed by web browsers. Like HTML, KML has a tag-based structure with names and attributes used for specific display purposes. Thus, Google Earth and Maps act as browsers for KML files.

SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) is a software package used for statistical analysis in the social sciences. The first version of SPSS was developed by SPSS Inc. in 1968 and has since had eighteen stable version releases. In 2009 SPSS Inc. was acquired by IBM. As of version 17.0.1 SPSS software has been known as Predictive Analytics Software. SPSS is used widely by both academics and other social researchers. SPSS creates an SPSS Output File which represents data in a two dimensional format where the rows are used to represent case values such as a place or personal name and the columns are used to represent measurements such as age or GDP. SPSS Output File is a proprietary file format. From SPSS version 16 and onwards the SPSS Output File has an .spv suffix. There is no backward compatibility for files generated by previous versions of SPSS. SPSS Inc.

FLAC stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec, an audio format similar to MP3, but lossless, meaning that audio is compressed in FLAC without any loss in quality. The basic structure of a FLAC stream is: •The four byte string "fLaC" •The STREAMINFO metadata block •Zero or more other metadata blocks •One or more audio frames The first four bytes are to identify the FLAC stream. The metadata that follows contains all the information about the stream except for the audio data itself. After the metadata comes the encoded audio data. 17 Sep 2007 Audio unknown The National Archives and Records Administration / The National Archives and Records Administration 29 Jul 2010 28 Aug 2012 Further information about this file format can be obtained at: http://flac.sourceforge.net/documentation_format_overview.html

The WARC (Web ARChive) file format offers a convention for concatenating multiple resource records (data objects), each consisting of a set of simple text headers and an arbitrary data block into one long file. The WARC format is an extension of the ARC file format (ARC) that has traditionally been used to store "web crawls" as sequences of content blocks harvested from the World Wide Web (…) Besides the primary content recorded in ARCs, the extended WARC format accommodates related secondary content, such as assigned metadata, abbreviated duplicate detection events, later-date transformations, and segmentation of large resources”. WARC format has been written by the members of the IIPC (http://www.netpreserve.org/) grouped within the ISO/TC46/SC4/WG12. 15 May 2009 Aggregate unknown 02 Nov 2010 19 Jul 2013 Submitted by Bibliothèque nationale de France with supplementary description information attributed to ISO 28500-2009 standard.

OpenDocument (ODF) format is a generic format for office documents, such as text, spreadsheets, presentations, drawings, and databases. It was developed by OASIS, based on the original OpenOffice document format. The format is an open standard, and is supported by a variety of office software packages. ODF is an XML format, which may comprise a single XML document, or a collection of subdocuments within a package. The package format is the commonly used form, and comprises a standard ZIP package containing the XML content and any associated binary data, together with a manifest which lists the package content. An ODF drawing document contains drawing data. The content is contained in a 'content' xml subdocument. Additional subdocuments contain style information, document metadata, and application-specific settings.

The Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) is a raster image format originally developed by the Aldus Corporation, primarily for use in scanning and desktop publishing. When Adobe Systems Incorporated purchased Aldus in 1994, they acquired the rights to the TIFF format and have maintained it since then. TIFF files comprise three sections: an Image File Header (IFH), an Image File Directory (IFD), and the image data. TIFF files can contain multiple images (multi-page TIFF), and each image has a separate IFD. The IFH always appears at the beginning of the file, and is immediately followed by a pointer to the first IFD. The IFD contains metadata which describes the associated image, stored as a series of tags. The IFD also contains a pointer to the actual image data. TIFF supports colour depths from 1 bit to 24 bit (e.g. monochrome to true colour), and a wide range of compression types (RLE, LZW, CCITT Group 3 and Group 4, and JPEG), as well as uncompressed data. 01 Aug 1986 Aldus Corporation Aldus Corporation 798 1223 1224 1225 Image (Raster) TIFF Revision 6.0 Adobe Systems Incorporated Adobe Systems Incorporated 03 Jun 1992 http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/tiff/TIFF6.pdf Authoritative Public TIFF Technical Note #2 (draft) Adobe Systems Incorporated Adobe Systems Incorporated 01 Jan 1995 http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/TIFFTechNote2.html The implementation of JPEG compression described in Revision 6.0 is flawed: a revised design was issued as TIFF Technical Note #2, which should be followed instead.

The Portable Document Format/ Archive is a format designed for long term preservation by Adobe Systems. PDF/A is a simplified version of PDF 1.4, with all of the features from PDF 1.4 that would impede long term preservation removed. Removed features include Javascript, Audio/Visual content, LZW compression and encryption. A major principle of PDF/A is that it is self contained and not reliant on externalities thus all font and colour information is encoded into the file. PDF/A files are larger than other types of PDF files due to the need for embedded information. PDF/A supports two levels of compliance PDF/A1-a (Accessible) and PDF/A1-b (Basic). PDF/A1-a is fully ISO 19005-1:2005 (PDF/A-1) compliant whereas PDF/A1-b is less stringent and not compliant. PDF/A1-a requires tagged PDF and Unicode whereas PDF/A1-b does not. The signature identification proposed for PDF/A 1b has been tested against a number of PDF/A and PDF files for verification. However, PDF itself is a complex format, and while the PDF/A 1b signature contained in PRONOM will identify many PDF/A 1b files, DROID can only identify what a file asserts itself to be. As there are a number of ways in which PDF/A 1b files can violate the PDF/A 1b conformance, which can not be spotted until the file is parsed, it is recommended that PDF files are tested against validation software when attempting to confirm identification. Further information concerning PDF/A violations, and a test suite of PDF items which fail to conform to PDF/A standards, can be found at http://www.pdfa.org/2011/08/isartor-test-suite/ 01 Oct 2005 Page Description ISO 19005-1:2005 - Document management - Electronic document file format for long-term preservation - Part 1: Use of PDF 1.4 (PDF/A-1) International Standards Organisation International Standards Organisation 01 Oct 2005 ISBN:0 580 46855 0 Authoritative Public unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 11 Jul 2011 08 Nov 2011 Additional information regarding violations of PDF/A 1b conformance added November 2011.

Rich Text Format (RTF) is a format developed by Microsoft to encode formatted text and graphics for use within applications or for data and formatting transfer between applications. It is closely associated with Microsoft Word, and new versions are developed with each release of Word. RTF files are encoded in plain text, typically ASCII, and consists of a series of control words, control symbols and groups. An RTF file comprises a Header section, containing various header tables, followed by a Document section, containing the document content and formatting. RTF version 1.9 is the version of the format associated with Microsoft Word 2007. Word Processor unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 01 Jun 2011 01 Jun 2011

A world file is a plain text computer data file used by geographic information systems to georeference raster map images, which may be produced in several of the basic image formats. The file specification was introduced by Esri. World files establish an image-to-world transformation that converts the image coordinates in raster data to real-world coordinates, where each cell in the image has a row and column number. Some image formats will store their georeferencing information in a separate file, rather than in the header. World Files do not specify a coordinate system, but contain six-line files that provide the georeferencing information.

ECW (Enhanced Compression Wavelet) is a proprietary wavelet compression image format optimized for geospatial imagery, which can quickly compress and decompress huge images, especially aerial and satellite imagery. It was developed by Earth Resource Mapping, and is now owned by ERDAS, which is owned by Leica Geosystems. The requirement of using the ECWP format for any application is that it requires the user to download and install enabling software in the form of a plug-in or in the case of the Java applet, a Java runtime environment (JRE).

Animated Cursor Format (ANI), also known as Windows NT Animated Cursor, is a chunk-based bitmap format developed by Microsoft, based on the generic Resource Interchange File Format (RIFF) specification developed by Microsoft and IBM. Structurally, an ANI file is composed of a number of chunks, each comprising a four character code chunk identifier, the chunk size, and the chunk data. It comprises a RIFF header with an ANI data type identifier, followed by a series of chunks which contain two or more bitmaps stored in an ANI file. Each bitmap is typically either a Windows cursor or icon data, but may also be raw, uncompressed bitmaps. Additional information stored in the ANI file controls the rate and the sequence in which each frame is displayed.

MrSID is an acronym that stands for Multiresolution Seamless Image Database. It is a wavelet-based file format developed and patented by LizardTech designed to enable portability of massive bit-mapped (raster) images, such as orthophotos. MrSID was originally developed for Geographic Information Systems (GIS). With this format, large raster image files such as aerial photographs or satellite imagery are compressed and can be quickly viewed without having to decompress the entire file. There is no open source implementation of the MrSID format. Some open source GIS systems can read MrSID files, including MapWindow GIS and those based on GDAL. The Decode Software Development Kit (SDK) is made available as a free download from developer.lizardtech.com. This enables the capability to implement MrSID reading capability in any application.

The Truevision TGA File Format comprises 5 areas, each of which contains one or more fields of fixed or variable length. The 5 file areas are: (1) TGA File Header, (2) Image/Color Map Data, (3) Developer Area, (4) Extension Area and (5) TGA File Footer. The last 3 areas, the Developer Area, the Extension Area and the TGA File Footer are new to the file specification as of September, 1989. For this reason, images created with software written before September, 1989 will probably not contain these three fields.

SVG is a language for describing two-dimensional graphics in XML. SVG allows for three types of graphic objects: vector graphic shapes (e.g., paths consisting of straight lines and curves), multimedia (such as raster images, video, and audio), and text. Graphical objects can be grouped, styled, transformed and composited into previously rendered objects. Scalable Vector Graphics Tiny (SVGT), Version 1.2, is a language for describing two-dimensional vector graphics in XML, combined with raster graphics and multimedia. Its goal is to provide the ability to create a whole range of graphical content, from static images to animations to interactive Web applications. SVG 1.2 Tiny is a profile of SVG intended for implementation on mobile devices, such as cellular phones and PDAs; it also works on laptop and desktop computers.

The Audio Interchange File Format (Audio IFF) provides a standard for storing sampled sounds. The format allows for the storage of monaural or multichannel sampled sounds at a variety of sample rates and sample widths. Audio IFF conforms to the " EA IFF 85" Standard for Interchange Format Files developed by Electronic Arts. Audio IFF is primarily an interchange format, although application designers should find it flexible enough to use as a data storage format as well. If an application does choose to use a different storage format, it should be able to convert to and from the format defined in this document. This will facilitate the sharing of sound data between applications. Audio IFF is the result of several meetings held with music developers over a period of ten months in 1987-88.

CINEMA 4D is a 3D modeling, animation and rendering application developed by MAXON Computer GmbH. CINEMA 4D doesn’t use separate files for material, object and scene information. Instead CINEMA 4D uses one file format which can contain all these elements. That means one editor where animation, modeling, texturing and rendering can be done at the same time. CINEMA 4D uses IFF, which means Interchange File Format“. IFF is a chunk based format. IFF allows you to read only those structures of a file which your application can handle.

OpenDocument (ODF) format is a generic format for office documents, such as text, spreadsheets, presentations, drawings, and databases. It was developed by OASIS, based on the original OpenOffice document format. The format is an open standard, and is supported by a variety of office software packages. ODF is an XML format, which may comprise a single XML document, or a collection of subdocuments within a package. The package format is the commonly used form, and comprises a standard ZIP package containing the XML content and any associated binary data, together with a manifest which lists the package content. An ODF database document contains a relational database. The content is contained in a 'content' xml subdocument. Additional subdocuments contain style information, document metadata, and application-specific settings. 778 Database unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 11 Jun 2012 11 Jun 2012 This format can be identified via a container signature in DROID version 6 or later.

The Digital Negative (DNG) Specification describes a non-proprietary file format for storing camera raw files that can be used by a wide range of hardware and software vendors. DNG is an extension of the TIFF 6.0 format, and is compatible with the TIFF-EP standard. This initial version accompanied the launch of DNG and related products. It was a rare, possibly unique, example of a raw image format specification published by its owner. It was adequate for representing typical images, but it had a few errors and deficiencies (specifically the lack of support for "masked pixels" and an inadvertent deviation from the JPEG specification) that required it soon to be replaced by the next version. 27 Sep 2004 1099 Image (Raster) unknown 11 Jun 2012 25 Oct 2012

The Digital Negative (DNG) Specification describes a non-proprietary file format for storing camera raw files that can be used by a wide range of hardware and software vendors. DNG is an extension of the TIFF 6.0 format, and is compatible with the TIFF-EP standard. This version, published May 2008, was based on experience and feedback from other companies about DNG since its launch. It introduced many new features, especially several new options for colour specification under the general heading of "Camera Profiles". These are mainly of value to software products wanting their own flavour of colour handling. This version permits administrative control of Camera Profiles, including calibration signatures and copyright information. 1099 Image (Raster) unknown 11 Jun 2012 11 Jun 2012

DNG is an extension of the TIFF 6.0 format, and is compatible with the TIFF-EP standard. This version, published June 2009, added various improvements, but the major change was to introduce "Opcodes". An Opcode and any associated parameters identifies a specific process to be applied to some or all of the raw image data during the conversion process. 1099 Image (Raster) unknown 11 Jun 2012 11 Jun 2012

The HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is a markup language designed for the rendering of information via a web browser. It was originally defined as a highly simplified subset of SGML, but is now an international standard, and is maintained by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). A HTML document consists of nested elements, each of which may have attributes and content. It begins with an HTML Document Type declaration.

When a previously saved Word document is opened for editing, for printing, or for review, Word creates a temporary file that has a .doc file name extension. This file name extension begins with a tilde (~) that is followed by a dollar sign ($) that is followed by the remainder of the original file name. This temporary file holds the logon name of person who opens the file. This temporary file is called the "owner file."

The Portable Document Format/Archive is a format designed for long term preservation by Adobe Systems. PDF/A is an ISO standardised version of PDF, with all of the features from PDF that would impede long term preservation removed. A major principle of PDF/A is that it is self contained and not reliant on externalities thus all font and colour information is encoded into the file. PDF/A files are larger than other types of PDF files due to the need for embedded information. PDF/A3 supports three levels of compliance: PDF/A-3a (Accessible), PDF/A-3b (Basic). and PDF/A-3u (Unicode). PDF/A-2 is based on ISO 32000-1 – PDF 1.7 and is defined by ISO 19005-3:2012, which has the formal name 'Document management - Electronic document file format for long-term preservation - Part 3: Use of ISO 32000-1 with support for embedded files (PDF/A-3)'. The primary new feature in PDF/A-3 is the ability to embed any source format within a PDF/A file. 1016 Page Description unknown Digital Preservation Department / The National Archives 25 Oct 2012 25 Oct 2012

A Microsoft Office - Word, Excel, or PowerPoint document, that has been encrypted. The encrypted document conforms to the MS-OFFCRYPTO specification, as found here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc313071(v=office.12).aspx The document is an OLE2 compound that contains a number of files: EncryptionInfo - This file contains information used by the Office-compatible application to decrypt the encrypted package. There are multiple variants of this file, as described in 2.3.4.5, and 2.3.4.6 of the format specification. EncryptedPackage - This file contains the whole of the encrypted document. DataSpaces folder (and sub-files) - This structure associates protected content with data space definitions. The data space definition, in turn, describes the series of transforms that must be applied to that protected content to restore it to its original form. Since the method of identifying and distinguishing specific types of OOXML documents relies on seeking and analysing specific elements within the document, and in the case of encryption this information is obfuscated, it does not currently seem possible to determine with any specificity whether an encrypted file is either an Excel, Word, or PowerPoint document, apart from the file extension.
