Archivematica normalizes certain ingested file formats into preservation-friendly formats.


General

  • Generation of access copies is triggered automatically when the user approves "Appraise SIP" in the dashboard.
  • The original files are not deleted.

Audio files

  • .ac3 files are converted to mp3
  • .aif/.aiff files are converted to mp3
  • .mp3 files are converted to mp3
  • .wav files are converted to mp3
  • .wma files are converted to mp3

Office documents

  • .doc files are converted to pdf
  • .docx files are converted to pdf
  • .ppt files are converted to pdf
  • .pptx files are converted to pdf
  • .rtf files are converted to pdf
  • .xls files are left in their original format
  • .xlsx files are left in their original format
  • .wpd files are normalized to ODT

Portable Document files

.pdf files are converted to pdf/a (note that the file extension remains .pdf)


Plain text

.txt files are left in their original format

Raster images

  • .bmp files are converted to JPEG
  • .gif files are converted to JPEG
  • .jpg files are left in their original format

    • multi-page .ai files are converted to multiple single page SVG 1.1 files
  • .eps files are converted to SVG 1.1
  • .svg files are converted to SVG 1.1
    • .svg files that tagged as SVG 1.0 but which are entirely conformant to the SVG 1.1 standard are not normalized to SVG 1.1

Video files

  • .avi files: video streams are normalized to MPEG-2; audio streams are normalized to uncompressed WAVE; wrapper is normalized to MXF
