Compaq FTAM Responder Support of 
ISO FTAM Functions

OSI/FTAM Responder Manual— 425199-001

Document Types

* In this context, full support applies to the contents type as a whole; it does not imply the support of all document 
types or all possible values of the parameters (maximum-string-length, universal-class, and string-significance) that 
further define the contents type.

Table 4-5 identifies the FTAM document types that the Compaq responder supports and 
provides all supported values for associated contents-type parameters.  The parameter 
values listed here are those directly supported; for information on the default values of 
these parameter values, see Table 4-7, later in this section.

Document types can be simplified to other document types with simpler structures.  
Simplification is the process of reading a file of a specific document type as a simpler 
document type.  Relaxations—specifications that change the parameter values of a 
document type—are not permitted by Compaq FTAM.  For more information on 
simplification and relaxation, see the subsection “Contents-Type Attribute,” later in this 
section.

The NBS-9 parameter value < filename > shown in Table 4-5 is the syntax notation for 
representing the value of a bit string.  In this case, only the filename attribute bit is set.
