File Representations

Starting in Aras Innovator 11.0 SP11, it is possible to represent files with the contents of another file, which is available to the end user. The most common use cases for this feature are:

• Providing a web-capable image for another, less available file type. For example, a CGM file cannot be displayed by browsers, but could be represented by an SVG file.
• Providing multiple resolutions of an image. For example, a high-resolution JPEG could be used as the main image on an item. This image then could have multiple representations at different resolutions, which could be used as a thumbnail or a mobile view.
