Reports and data generated by machines and other scientific instruments used for DNA experiments can be efficiently analyzed using these types of applications. GenePix Pro Software uses the ATF file format as a data file that it references when required. This ATF file format was originally developed by Axon Instruments, and the data stored in files appended with the .atf extension includes DNA experimental information generated as reports by the scientific machines and instruments used for micro array and DNA sequencing analysis. Users can create an ATF file by using the GenePix Pro Software, entering the data produced as scientific details of associated experiments via the features integrated into the software, using the other functions available in the GenePix Pro Software to process and format the data and saving it in the ATF format. The GenePix Pro Software can also be used to open and edit existing ATF files.

Notepad is a basic text editor used to create plain documents. It is commonly used to view or edit text (.txt) files, and a simple tool for creating Web pages, and supports only the basic formatting in HTML documents. It also has a simple built-in logging function. Each time a file that initializes with .log is opened, the program inserts a text timestamp on the last line of the file. It accepts text from the Windows clipboard. This is helpful in stripping embedded font type and style codes from formatted text, such as when copying text from a Web page and pasting into an email message or other “What You See Is What You Get†text editor. The formatted text is temporarily pasted into Notepad, and then immediately copied again in stripped format to be pasted into the other program.

In older versions such as Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me and Windows 3.1, there is a 64k limit on the size of the file being edited, an operating system limit of the EDIT class.

what is a file extension?
A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .atf. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.
