The artifact information downloaded with the artifact image would be in a basic text file. |
| Q. |
Why does not the artifact image that I downloaded look like an image? |

To make it easier for users to differentiate between the artifact image and information, the two have been compressed into a zip file for download. To see the image, users need only decompress the zip file. |

After I open the numerical data or nominal data dataset, why does the content show up unreadable? |
