# Supported Formats

KeyView support for RMS files depends on the encryption method that RMS uses for each file type, and on whether the file is classified or protected. In RMS, classified files have additional labels to inform users of their sensitivity, while protected files are encrypted so that only authorized users can view them.

In some cases, KeyView format detection returns a different file type depending on whether the file is classified or protected.

The following sections provide information about the RMS support for different file types, and metadata support.

For more information about XrML extraction, see the `subFileType` member of the KVSubFileInfo structure.

## Microsoft Office Files

The following table describes KeyView detected formats for Microsoft Office files that RMS encrypts by creating an OLE container.

For these files:

- KeyView can get classification metadata.
- KeyView can detect whether the file is RMS encrypted (the `kWindowsRMSEncrypted` flag).

- When you configure credentials through `fpConfigureRMS`, Filter and File Extraction API functions can operate on the protected data of the file. See fpConfigureRMS() In this case, you can filter, extract, and get summary information.

In most cases, KeyView can also extract the XrML file for these files when they are protected, and identify the XrML files as `KVSubFileType_XrML`.

## Implemented as pFile

The following table describes the KeyView detected formats for files that RMS encrypts by creating a pFile around the document.

For these files:

- KeyView can get classification metadata.

- KeyView can detect whether the file is RMS encrypted (the `kWindowsRMSEncrypted` flag).

- KeyView can extract the XrML if the file is protected.

- When you configure credentials through `fpConfigureRMS`, Filter and File Extraction API functions can operate on the protected data of the file. See fpConfigureRMS() In this case, you can filter, extract, and get summary information.

File extensions | Format detected when file is classified but not protected | Format detected when file is protected | Notes
--- | --- | --- | ---
pfile | n/a | RMS_Protected_Fmt |
vsd | MS_Visio_Fmt | RMS_Protected_Fmt |
vdw, vss, vst | MS_Visio_Fmt | RMS_Protected_Fmt |
mpp, mpt | MS_Project_4_Fmt MS_Project_41_Fmt MS_Project_98_Fmt MS_Project_2000_Fmt MS_Project_2007_Fmt | RMS_Protected_Fmt |
pub | MS_Publisher_98_Fmt | RMS_Protected_Fmt |
jpg | JPEG_File_Interchange_Fmt | RMS_Protected_Fmt | Protected format has extension pjpg. When classified but not protected, the classification metadata is XMP.
png | PNG_Fmt | RMS_Protected_Fmt | Protected format has extension ppng.
gif | GIF_89a_Fmt | RMS_Protected_Fmt | Protected format has extension pgif. When classified but not protected, the classification metadata is XMP.
tif | TIFF_Fmt | RMS_Protected_Fmt | Protected format has extension ptif. When classified but not protected, the classification metadata is XMP.
dng | TIFF_Fmt | RMS_Protected_Fmt | When classified but not protected, the classification metadata is XMP.
dwfx | MS_XPS_Fmt | RMS_Protected_Fmt | When classified but not protected, dwfx is detected and treated as XPS.
psd, psb | PSD_Fmt | RMS_Protected_Fmt | When classified but not protected, the classification metadata is XMP.

## PDF Files

The following table describes the KeyView detected formats for PDF documents, which RMS encrypts by creating an encrypted PDF (in which each stream and metadata value is encrypted), wrapped in a container PDF. KeyView allows you to extract the encrypted PDF from the container, and then for the extracted file:

- KeyView can detect whether the file is RMS encrypted (the `kWindowsRMSEncrypted` flag).

- KeyView can extract the XrML if the file is protected.

- When you configure credentials through `fpConfigureRMS`, Filter and File Extraction API functions can operate on the protected data of the file. See fpConfigureRMS() In this case you can filter, extract, and get summary information for PDF formats.

File extensions | Format detected when file is classified but not protected | Format detected when file is protected
--- | --- | ---
pdf | PDF_Fmt PDF_Portfolio_Fmt | PDF_Fmt PDF_Portfolio_Fmt

## Restricted Permission Messages

Email clients such as Microsoft Outlook can protect email messages as rights-managed email messages. In these cases, it stores the contents of the original message as an encrypted `rpmsg` attachment. KeyView does not support detection or processing of these encrypted attachments.
