• Supported formats will be functionally preserved using either format migration or emulation techniques. Examples include TIFF, SGML, XML, AIFF, and PDF.
• Known formats are those that we can't promise to preserve, such as proprietary or binary formats, but which are so popular that third party migration tools will likely emerge to help with format migration. Examples include Microsoft Word and Powerpoint, Lotus 1-2-3, and WordPerfect.
• Unsupported formats are those that we don't know enough about to do any sort of functional preservation. This would include some proprietary formats or a one-of-a-kind software program.

You can report bugs and suggest enhancements through the SourceForge system. Bugs will be fixed as soon as possible, within the limits of the DSpace team?'s technical support resources. The team considers all enhancements, and if an enhancement is accepted, adds it to the enhancement list for development as time and resources allow. Of course, any users working with the open-source code are welcome to fix a bug or make an improvement to the system. See our DSpace Community Development Guidelines to learn how.
