- ASCII
-
-
- DESCRIPTION:
- ASCII (American Standards Code for Information Interchange) is a type
- of document file format similar to those produced by a word processor
- such as WordWorth or MS Word, except that ASCII is a very simple
- format in that it only contains information on Column and Row
- information and will not record the type of font used. Also underlining
- and Boldface information.
-
-
- NOTES:
- Because ASCII is such a simple format, it does have the advantage of
- being very portable meaning that virtually every word processor, text
- editor, Email client etc known to man will handle ASCII files with
- ease.
