can be accessed as well.

are supported. Examples are common graphic formats like bmp, jpg, tiff, and png, EXCEL

formats, and EMSA/MSA spectra.
Proprietary file formats ensure complete data conservation including all secondary information
attached to an object. Multiple data can be grouped in project files.

data or graphic files. Graphics are equivalent to what is displayed on the screen. Graphic export is
possible using common file types or the Windows
