Carmen: Supported and Restricted File Types [Instructor]
Carmen currently supports the following types of files for use as content topics:
| File Type | Extension |
|---|---|
| Web document | .htm, .html, .mht, .mhtml |
| Text document | .doc, .rtf, .ppt, .pps, .pdf, .txt, .xls, .wpd |
| Image | .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .png |
| Media | .asf, .avi, .mp3, .mpg, .mov, .mpeg, .ra, .ram, .rm, .swf, .wav, .wmv, .wma |
Note, however, for students to view documents online (as opposed to downloading and opening them in another program), it's wise to stick to these formats:
- HTML (.html or .htm): Use for text or other documents requiring more than basic formatting (including PowerPoint files).
- Plain text (.txt): Use for short, simple text where no formatting beyond paragraphs is required.
- JPEG (.jpg or .jpeg): Use for graphics that are photographs or fine art reproductions.
- GIF (.gif): Use for other graphics files.
Shown below are restricted upload extensions:
