(JPEG2000 Part 15) Testing #fileformats #digipres https://journal.code4lib.org/articles/17596

#PRONOM v114 has been released! #fileformats #digipres https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/aboutapps/pronom/release-notes.xml

jumping right into EMAIL FORMATS this week!!! (TNEF, MLM, EMLX, vCard) #fileformats

Currently I have #IsoBuster running in a Windows 7 VM on my #BitCurator workstation, but the size assigned to the VM is a limiting factor at the moment. I can open the .gi file and extract the contents, but I can only work with one disk at a time. Also it takes way more steps than I am interested in… :/ #digipres #DigitalForensics #fileformats

I’ve got some disk images in the .gi format, and I’m looking for a tool to read it. My basic search suggests IsoBuster, but are there any tools that run on Linux that would get the job done? I feel like maybe TestDisk, but I don’t actually have a disk, I just have the gi file. #digipres #DigitalForensics #fileformats

Submitted some updates to the CorelDRAW format to PRONOM, it was a few versions behind! #fileformats #digipres https://github.com/thorsted/PRONOM_Research/tree/main/Submissions/CorelDRAW%20Updates

I used to work in commercial printing. I have a lot to document for #digipres #fileformats https://docs.esko.com/docs/en-us/automationengine/16.1/userguide/en-us/common/ae/concept/co_ae_Intro_FileTypes.html

@Thorsted These blogs are all so cool. I also always enjoy when #ExifTool makes an appearance. #fileFormats #digipres

What does a Bento Box and #fileformats Friday have in common? Read about the Open Media Framework format to find out! #digipres https://preservation.tylerthorsted.com/2023/04/28/open-media-framework/

If anyone has any ideas what I can create in the latest Adobe Acrobat Pro version to add to things like the OPF format corpus, please let me know. Are there any weird or extreme exports I can be engineering? Or gaps in current corpi? Happy to spend some time exporting. #digipres #fileformats #pdf

We have legacy word processing documents (Word 5.0 on DOS). While modern versions of Word can't open it, LibreOffice can, which allows a pretty decent export to PDF. What do you think? Are you ingesting these files as is or do you migrate them before ingest? If so, how?

Here is a list of #fileformats that should be used when sharing any kind of scientific information. The first entry is the preferred format.

1. Tabulated data : CSV
2. Images : PNG, TIFF , HDF5
3. Compressed archive: ZIP
4..Figure illustrations: SVG, EPS
5. Posters: SVG, EPS
6. Prose: Markdown, Text
7. Video: MP4

These lossless formats ensure that anyone on any system can access your actual data.
Feel free to add your entry.

PS: Please don't send posters as Powerpoint (the horror).

I can't recommend the Binary Tools and Energy sessions from #FOSDEM enough.

Question about naming a PRONOM format classification/format type field in Siegfried, https://github.com/richardlehane/siegfried/discussions/207#discussioncomment-4890503 cc. #FileFormats folks et al. will also reach out to PRONOM so we get it right.

A couple of solutions for people who want to be able to save images from the web as something normal, instead of WebP (and for people who are wondering WTF a WebP is in the first place, and why Chrome keeps insisting on saving your images that way): https://chromeunboxed.com/how-to-convert-webp-images-to-jpg-chrome #images #fileFormats #tech #Chrome
