Difference between revisions of "Tests: Normalize"

Revision as of 17:21, 9 December 2010

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

Normalization is triggered automatically when the user approves "Appraise SIP" in the dashboard.
The original files are not deleted.
When normalized files have the same file extensions as the original, the original files are not overwritten.
If the SIP contains files for which there are no default normalization paths, processing of the SIP does not stop.

.pdf is normalized to pdf/a (note that the file extension remains .pdf)

.txt files are left in their original format

.bmp files are normalized to uncompressed TIFF 6.0
.gif files are normalized to uncompressed TIFF 6.0
.jpg files are normalized to uncompressed TIFF 6.0
.jp2 files are normalized to losslessly compressed JPEG 2000 (not yet implemented)
.png files are not normalized
.psd files are normalized to uncompressed TIFF 6.0
.tif files are normalized to uncompressed TIFF 6.0
.tga files are normalized to uncompressed TIFF 6.0

.ai files are normalized to SVG 1.1 (not yet implemented)
- multi-page .ai files are normalized to multiple single-page SVG 1.1 files
.eps files are normalized to SVG 1.1
.svg files are normalized 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
