What programme creates a .ggi file and why would it be used?

Have been asked to create a .ggi file and I have never come across this file extension before.
I have googles it and got as much information as possible but can't seem to find the answer - why would it be used, what is it used for and what software creates it.
Also, not sure where to ask this question so apologies if this is in the wrong forum!
Any help greatly appreciated!!!!

We can't know. File extensions are completely arbitrary and if whoever requested the format can't tell you what he/ she needs, then we can't either. If it were a commonly used file format we would probably not, but since we don't, it is probably a proprietary format associated with some lesser known or even exotic software. That being so, the request to provide such a file is actually even pretty stupid, since the only way to create it would be to have access to that program. Causal loop.

  • What is the thumb64segment.jpg file, and why so big?

    Ok, I finally got my MacBook Pro (first mac) got all my photos approx.7-8k worth into iPhoto. Can someone tell me what are the:
    thumb64segment.data
    thumb32segment.data
    thumbJPGsegment.data
    files and why are they in hundreds of MB, and one is ~1.5GB?
    Thanks

    Thanks toad. You might be right about the color profile, I imported all my photos into iPhoto yesterday and I had left the add colorsync profile checkbox clicked--I'm still trying to figure out exactly what it does and if I should have done that in the first place.
    As a side note, and while I have your attention (since you are so good at answering iphoto questions).
    I have a Sony V1 camera, which I assume uses the RGB or the sRGB color profile. When I get home tonight, I would like to software calibrate my monitor to 2.2 gama and 6500k white point. What else do I need to do to make sure that my photos are the same accross the board with respect to colorsync/color profile.
    I rarely print photos (never at home), usually through imagestation.com (maybe through apple's service from now on, but I doubt it). I understand that assuming these services dont discard the color profile embeded into the image file I send them, I should aim to send them the file with the same color profile as is used by their printers? correct?
    Is there anything else I'm missing here?
    Is there any other benefit to embeding a color profile into an image? Like, if I email the img to someone, will the image look the same on their screen? (I assume not, because they will a) not have the screen calibrated the same way, and b) well, I'm sure there's another reason.
    PPS. I did the search on this group earlier today and read a bunch of threads on this, but I"m still not clear.
    Thanks in advance,

  • What is this .DS Store file and why does it keep coming back?

    So a few weeks ago I noticed this .ds store hidden file showing up on my desktop of my MacBook Pro, I deleted it, so it's over with right? WRONG!!! Could not have been more wrong. This file now shows up in every single folder I open on my computer. I've deleted it form the same folder numerous times only for it to reappear again and again and again. It's even showing up on my USB Flash Drives. I've reached a point where I'd rather throw this computer out the window then have to keep dealing with this insufferable file. Can someone please explain to me what the heck is going on? And more importanly on I can actually fix this problem so I DO NOT have to deal with it anymore? Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Side Note: I have already used a bunch of different programs and none have yet to work. Everyone keeps recommending TinkerTools and it doesn't do squat.

    This will explain the .ds store file. As you've found out there's one for every file. If you don't want to see those hidden files, don't display hidden files.
    To make hidden file hidden, bring up terminal, enter "defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles NO" (don't type the quote marks), then force quit finder and relaunch it. If that doesn't work, change NO to FALSE. 

  • HT4859 What and where is the Camera Roll that Apple keeps referring to?  What is it for?  How and why would I use it?

    I haven't a clue.  I asked the question.

    Thanks.  I understand the initial concept that pictures I take are not on my device but on the camera roll.  Or in your language, they are on the device.  But after talking with able it seems I can roll the pictures around, from all the strange places that pictures might be sent to and returned from, including to the camera roll.  So at the moment i figure that it is a place where I can save pictures, return pictures, and save pictures.  Not albums, not photo stream, not recently recovered, not recently downloaded, just llike a camera, but I understand that I can return pictures to the camera if I want to save them or show them to anyone if my device is off line.  Thanks for trying to help.  It's way beyond my ken.

    What application is set to open PDF files? If you CNTRL click on the file and open with Preview does the problem occur?
    If not change the default application to open PDF files to Preview.
    You can do this by highlighting the file and either use CMD i or Get Info , this will open a window with the info on the file with an option to change the application that opens the file.
    That's all I can think of.

  • Aperture Creating Large JPG file and placing it with Ref File

    When I imported a group of images Aperture automatically created a JPEG file and placed it in the same folder I imported the Master images. The masters are 15.x meg and the JPEG is 3.x Meg. Any idea why this is happening - it is a new behavior

    This was news to me as well. Here's what Apple has to say about it:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304868
    Kind of a bothersome thing to have to do before importing (their suggestion is to move the jpgs before importing). I'd shoot in RAW only except my wife wants the jpgs on her computer while I want the RAW files on mine.

  • Just installed mountain Lion. Viewing a pdf sent to me using preview and some colors are appearing BLACK, however when I view the same PDF in Acrobat they are perfect and what they are suppose to be. WHY would PREVIEW showing a different color?

    Just installed mountain Lion. Viewing a pdf sent to me using preview and some colors are appearing BLACK, however when I view the same PDF in Acrobat they are perfect and what they are suppose to be. WHY would PREVIEW showing a different color?

    Here's what I've found on the issue:
    Pantone color definitions have changed (coinciding with CS6) — they are now "Pantone+" (I think that's what they're called). The "+" apparently means they're now LAB colors. Lab colors are not properly displayed in Preview (or in Finder previews) — they display as black (as far as I can tell, in all circumstances). I'm sure it's a tad more complicated than that, but that's the gist.
    Now the bad news — nobody seems to know anything about a fix or workaround (unless you convert your PDFs to process — this might be a fix for sending to clients). It causes issues for me in AI files — being able to view them in the finder (with previews) is a HUGE time saver for my workflow... when they're all black, not so much.
    In my chat with a director of product dev at Adobe, they placed the responsibility to fix on Apple (assuming Apple wants to support Pantone color definitions in their OS).

  • Creating an XLS file and Zip it

    Hi All,
    we have a requirement where in we have to create an XLS file from internal table. This xls file then has to be zipped and mailed.

    >2) Convert the STRING format to XSTRING format by using the FM SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING.
    Actually you should use CL_BCS_CONVERT=>STRING_TO_XSTRING now.
    >3) Use the method COMPRESS_BINARY of class CL_ABAP_GZIP to compress the XSTRING file.
    You probably want to use CL_ABAP_ZIP instead of CL_ABAP_GZIP.  CL_ABAP_GZIP only does compression, which is fine for storing a single packet of data in the database.  However CL_ABAP_ZIP is better suited for mult-part zip (multiple inner files).
    >4) Use the method SEND_WEB_MAIL of class CL_HRRCF_SERVICES_MAIL to mail across the zipped contents.
    This seems to be an HR specific class. Better to use the cross application, NetWeaver provided functionality for sending mail - CL_BCS.

    In coldfusion, is it possible to  create a csv file and send it in an email, without ever saving that file on the hard drive?

    Yes, you can create an email attachment without writing a file to disk.  This feature was introduced in CF 8.0.1.
    I've posted a sample to a previous thread on the forums.
