Hi All,
Just had some problems using the file upload/repository feature with Photoshop files. The files upload fine, download fine but something happens en route and they no longer open.
Searching the forums, I found a post from someone asking if it was possible to use the file upload feature with .eps, .psd, .ai and a host of other file formats commonly used in creative work. Someone replied mentioning requiring custom mime-types for these file types to work.
I'm just wondering if anyone can shed more light on the issue. Or if by any chance there's a mod available.
(I've searched forums and wiki for mime-type and .psd before posting)
Thanks in advance for any help.
Cheers
Martin

Hi MindBlender
It happens with all .psd files
I'm not an expert in mime-types etc., just picking up on what other people have said.
There could be another issue too. Does phpC upload and download files as ASCII or binary files?
If I use a standard ftp client to transfer .psd files from my hard drive to a webserver, I have to upload them as binary files. Photoshop is unable to open a file once it's been moved as an ASCII file.
Thanks for taking an interest in this.
Martin

Martin,
Not sure about what method PHPc uses for uploading. Something I'll have to look into.
As you mentioned, a .psd file should be uploaded using binary and not ascii. Ascii should only be used for plain text files.
