- Checking files
- As part of packaging files, you may want to automatically examine them for errors
- All sorts of errors can occur -- things like wrong file formats, missing fonts, wrong color space
- When you're saving files out and want to script deployments, save them in an open file format
- Photoshop .psd is not an open file format, nor is Adobe Illustrator or Quark
- EPS, JPEG, PNG, SVG, SWF are
- You may be able to find tools to read non-proprietary files on the net (one of which I'll introduce below)
- But in order to read these into programs to examine your files, open file formats allow you to examine your files more easily.
