Q: What are the public UTIs supported by Mac OS X v10.3?A: UTIs (Uniform Type Identifier) were introduced in Carbon with the Pasteboard Manager on Mac OS X v10.3. This document lists the public UTIs supported on Mac OS X v10.3. Later releases of Mac OS X will list the public UTIs supported in a new header (UTCoreTypes.h) of the LaunchServices framework.
