Message definition (Digitization, Preservation and Ingest)
In essence, through file validation, we check whether the format of a file is proper and correct—whether it is valid. Hence, through file format validation, we can check whether a file conforms to the file format specification—standards a specific file format such as .jpg, .doc., or TIFF must follow. As an illustration, file format validation could be compared to the inspection of boxes or folders in a physical archive to ensure they are not damaged, otherwise items could fall out or be damaged.
