Redbaron can read HTML, text, GIF, JPEG, and XBM file types using built-in components. To support other file types, you will need to define the file types that you want to support and then associate those file types with applications (helpers) that can support those files.
Some file formats are predefined. All you need to do is associate a file format with the application that you want to use to read the file format.
To associate a file type with a helper application:
To add a new file type:
MIME (Multi-purpose Internet Mail Extensions) is a standard system for naming different file formats. When Redbaron retrieves a file from a server, the server provides the MIME type of the file. Redbaron uses the MIME type to determine if the file can be read by Redbaron, or if an appropriate helper application is available to read the file.
MIME types are available from the list of registered MIME types. Use the MIME type that best describes your file type.
For servers that do not provide MIME types, Redbaron uses filename extensions to determine the file format.
