ANSI/AIIM MS53-1993 - Standard Recommended Practice, File
Format for Storage and Exchange of Images; Bi-Level Image File Format: Part I. This
standard addresses bi-level electronic images that are coded using CCITT Recommendations
T.4 and T.6 (Group 3 and 4) as well as bit-mapped images (having no compression). MS53
will put into one standard a self-contained file format for bi-level image file transfer
environments other than facsimile. Approved in March 1993 to replace TIFF bi-level format
for applications that require file transfer across different platforms. Part 2 and Part 3
are undergoing development for continuous tone and color images.

Draft/Emerging Standards and Projects
The following proposed standards and projects are under
development, and are provided here for informational purposes only:
AIIM/TR31- Part 4: Model Rule and Model Law (Draft document
under review).
ANSI/AIIM MS50 - Proposed standard: Recommended Practice
for Monitoring Image Quality of Aperture Card Film Image Scanners.
AIIM Project 99 - Projects (in production) for:
Electronic/Digital Test Targets (Part 1: The Target; Part 2: Description and Use).
AIIM/MS55 -Proposed standard (in production):
Identification and Indexing of Page Components (Zones) for Automated Processing in an ELM
Environment.
AIIM/MR - Technical Report (TO) on Indexing Considerations
For An ELM System (draft report currently under revision by AIIM standards committee).
ISO/IEC DIS 13481 - Data interchange on 130 mm optical disk
cartridges - Capacity: 1 gigabyte per cartridge.
ISO CD 13403 - Proposed draft standard under development
for Information Interchange on 300 mm Optical Disk Cartridges of the Write Once, Read
Multiple (WORM) using the Continuous Composite Servo (CCS) Method. A different proposed
draft standard also under development is for the Sampled Servo (SS) method.
ISO (JTC1/SC24/WG7) DIS 12087-3 (IIF) Image Interchange
Facility. The IIF is part of the first international Image Processing and Interchange
Standard (IPI). It comprises both a data format definition and a gateway functional
specification. A data format definition is proposed for exchanging arbitrarily structured
image data which can be used across application boundaries. There are also definitions of
parsers, generators, and format converters to enhance open image communication. Part 2 of
the IPI standard is the Imaging Kernel System (PIKS) and is located in the IIF Gateway
which controls the import/export of image data to/from applications as well as the PIKS.
The IIF may serve as a future image content architecture of the Open Document Architecture
(ODA).
ISO/IEC DIS 13346 (ECMA 167) - Information technology -
Volume and File Structure of Write-Once and Rewritable Media using Non-Sequential
Recording for information Interchange.
ISO DIS 13490 (ECMA 168) - (Also known as the
"Frankfort Specification") Draft
International Standard and Draft ECMA Standard for read
only and write once compact disc media which promises equal enrichment for Unix,
MacIntosh, OS/2, and Windows NT. Frankfort also supports the incremental update capability
that is lacking in ISO 9660. ECMA 168 will conform to the Orange Book Specification.
