I was trying to track down an high resolution copy of the OSR logo to put onto sign posts and so on and tracked down a vector graphic of the logo from the guy who prints our shirts. He sent it to me saying it was “the graphic he used” but the file I received didn’t include an extension. Time for trial an error!
BMP – No
JPG – No
TIF – No
PNG – No
SVG – No
VML – No
XPS – No
PDF – No
JP2 – No
RAW – No
PBM – No
EWC – No
CGM – No
DCS – No
SWF – No
GIF – No
ANI – No
PAT – No
CFA – No
DNG – No
GIH – No
TGA – No
PGF – No
EPS – GOOOOOOOOOOAL!
Yep. Encapsulated post script. The graphic equivalent of storing a term paper as a spreadsheet. It’ll work, sure. But no sane person would do it.
He included another image that I’m yet to figure out what it is. I’m confident if I open it in a hex editor it’ll just be pseudorandom data.







Actually, EPS is an extremely common way to save graphics, especially vector graphics (which by definition excludes most of the formats you did try). EPS would be one of the first things to try if looking for vector graphics.
Illustrator, Corel Draw, and even winner for most powerful program with the worst interface, Gimp, all use EPS files.

At the onset, I didn't know if the file was vector graphics or not as I had
gotten two files and I assumed one was and was not. I assumed the smaller
file would be the vector graphic file as it seems reasonable that a
geometric representation would take up less space than a pixel by pixel
accounting. I look forward to seeing how stupidly small the raster image
is.
Boo, Graphics.

Have you tried a .zip format?

I didn't think of that. As of now, I have. No dice. Maybe .rar or even
better .g7z or whatever that weird one is.
