- Request for File Type and Auxiliary Type Assignment
- Apple Developer Technical Support
-
- Before you ship your application, you must request file type and auxiliary
- type assignments for files you create from Apple Developer Technical Support.
- File type and auxiliary type combinations are used to identify files and their
- contents. The limited supply of file types requires that file types be
- defined generically and that specific auxiliary types be assigned by Apple for
- application use.
-
- If you use a file type or auxiliary type which is not assigned to you, future
- versions of the Apple II or IIGS system software may identify your files with
- the wrong application, resulting in unpredictable results. For example, you
- might accidentally use a type for your data files that future system software
- will identify as code.
-
- Apple assigns as many auxiliary types as you need in the appropriate file
- types. We also try to direct you towards file format standards that increase
- your application's ability to work with other applications. Assigned file
- type and auxiliary type combinations are used by the Finder(TM) to identify
- files on machines with sufficient memory.
-
- If you are requesting more than one assignment, please copy this form and send
- us one copy for each assignment. You do not have to fill in the entire
- address if the forms are attached to each other. Thank you.
-
- Send the completed form to:
