Supported files
The files you can edit, display and import in a PrismaTex project.
Files you can edit
| Type | Extensions |

| LaTeX sources | .tex |
| Bibliography | .bib, .bst |

| Text and data | .txt, .md, .json, .yaml, .yml, .csv, .tsv |
These files open in the code editor and can be edited by several people in real time.
Files that are displayed but not edited
Images (.png, .jpg, .pdf…) and other binary files can be added to the project and used in your documents, for example with \includegraphics. They don't open in the code editor.
Which image format?
With pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX, prefer PNG or JPG for photos, and PDF for vector charts and diagrams.
