File Formats

|
Shown below is a list
of file formats which we are able to accommodate. Preferred
file formats are shown in bold.
This is important
if you need to send us files at any time whether it be
documents, drawings, CAD data or what have you. Please
check that your file type is on this list before you send it.
Files may be
sent to us as e-mail attachments or by uploading them to our
ftp server. If you upload files, then you still need to e-mail
us to advise us of the names of the files you have uploaded
and their purpose.
Please note that
persons uploading files are responsible for ensuring their
integrity. Anyone uploading files containing viruses, trojans
or other malicious code may have e-mail and ftp access blocked
in the future.
If at any time
you need to send us executable files or scripts, for example
when we need to debug an application, then always send these
wrapped in an archive file and not as a raw executable which
will be blocked or deleted for security reasons.
