Note: Support of certain formats depends on the use case and must be assessed and set up by Recommind Professional Services. Please consult with Recommind Support. Additional formats to the ones listed here might be supported, but need testing for the specific use case and additional configuration. Note: The MIME types are assigned for mapping purposes within Recommind CORE only. They are usually, but not necessarily compatible with the official registry of media types maintained by IANA. 1.1 Different Supported Formats in Updated Pro- jects Projects created with versions prior to CORE 5.16/Axcelerate 5.10 use Oracle Outside In 8.5.1, which does not cover some recent data formats. To ensure consistent hash value computation, required, e.g., for duplicate detection, this Oracle Outside In version is preserved for existing and new data sources. Only data sources of projects created with CORE 5.16 and up use Oracle Outside In 8.5.3, and support newer formats, such as Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint 2016, Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac (OLM and EML), Corel WordPerfect, Corel Quattro Pro, Corel Presentations, Corel Draw X7, AutoCAD 2015. If you want to use Oracle Outside In 8.5.3 for projects that use 8.5.1 by default, even if this may result in inconsistent ingestion results, you can change the Oracle Outside In version for data sources. How to change the Oracle Outside In version used 1. In CORE Administration, open the data source configuration. 2. Go to Parsers > Stellent parser > General settings. 3. Set OutsideIn version to 8.5.3. 3 | © Recommind, Inc. 2017. 1 Supported Data Formats The new version is used at data source start. 1.2 Data Display All formats that can be processed can also be displayed in document views of the dif- ferent user interfaces. Look at the tables preceded by this title: Data is processed and can be displayed. 1.3 Display in the BRAVA Third Party Plug-in The plug-in is part of Axcelerate 5. These native file formats can be transformed into dis- play format by BRAVA 7.5 : l files with IANA text\plain MIME type (mostly with TXT extension) l files with IANA application\acad MIME type (2D CAD files, mostly with dwg extension) l and files with these extensions: l PDF l BMP l GIF l JPEG l PNG l TIFF l WMF The other formats are converted internally and then displayed by the BRAVA third party plug-in. Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint files are converted using their native applications. Chat XML documents are converted internally by the CORE system. All other formats are converted using Oracle OutsideIn. 4 | © Recommind, Inc. 2017. 1 Supported Data Formats 1.4 Archive Formats Data is processed and can be displayed Common Format MIME type Comments extensions 7-zip Compressed 7z application/x-7z- File compressed ARC arc application/arc ARJ Compressed arj application/x-arj Archive File application/arj BZIP2 Com- bzip2, bz2 application/x-bzip2 Note: Only the first pressed Archive part of a split Format archive is loaded.
