Dear Apple II Developer:

Please find enclosed the form for a requested File Type and Auxiliary Type assignment for Apple II computers. Because the number of file types is severely limited (256 total), Apple Computer defines file types as generic descriptions of file contents and assigns specific auxiliary types to individual developers for specific file formats. These combinations must be assigned by Apple, not solely arbitrated, due to the specialized assignment nature of generic file type descriptions.

Please copy the form and use it to request all file type and auxiliary type assignments.

If you can, we would appreciate the file format so we can publish it in an Apple II File Type Note. More information can be found in "About File Type Notes". If you have further questions, please feel free to contact us at the address on the registration form.

Thank you,

Apple Computer, Inc.
Developer Technical Support
