Today, each applications program uses its own vendor-specific format to store data. Yet end-users demand that programs accept data files that may have been created by totally different and sometimes competing programs. Software developers in particular depend on the file format information of different applications programs to implement advanced import and export functions. Unfortunately, most of the information about file formats is confidential, not well-documented, or not available for public use.
The painful search for file format information is now over. The File Formats Handbook uncovers the file formats used by popular software products in the areas of databases, spreadsheets, word processing, graphics, sound and multimedia. It is unmatched by any other book in its depth and breadth of coverage and in its attention to detail.
The File Formats Handbook helps readers make their graphics programming instantly compatible with all major graphics applications. Readers also gain access to valid insider knowledge and have the opportunity to explore the secrets of file formats.
