Key to Supported Formats Table

The supported formats table includes the following information:

Column Description
Format Name

The format name that is returned by KeyView format detection.

  • In the C API, these values are defined in the ENdocFmt enumeration in adDocFmt.h.
  • In the .NET API these values are defined in the Autonomy.API.Export.DocFormat enumeration.
  • In the Java API these values are defined in the com.verity.api.DocFormat enumeration.
Number The format number that is returned by KeyView format detection. This is the value associated with the Format Name in the relevant enumeration.
Category This value is used in the KeyView configuration file formats.ini to specify the reader to use to filter, export, or view the format. Several formats might have the same category value.
Description A short description of the file format.
MIME Type The MIME type (if any).
Extension

A list of common file extensions for the file format.

NOTE: This is not a complete list of file extensions. KeyView does not distinguish between file types based on their extension. Instead, it detects the file format based on the file content. This is more reliable because content cannot always be predicted from the file extension, and because some file extensions are associated with multiple formats.

File Class

The KeyView file class.

  • In the C API, these values are defined in the ENdocClass enumeration in adinfo.h.
  • In the .NET API these values are defined in the Autonomy.API.Export.DocClass enumeration.
  • In the Java API these values are defined in the com.verity.api.DocClass enumeration.
