.ISFF File Extension

Intergraph Standard File Format

Question: What is an ISFF File?

Have you found, downloaded or received an ISFF file, but don't know which software program is required to open it?

Before attempting to open an ISFF file, you'll need to determine what kind of file you are dealing with and whether it is even possible to open or view the file format.

Answer: Files which are given the .ISFF extension are known as Intergraph Standard files Format, however other file types may also use this extension. If you are aware of any additional file formats that use the ISFF extension, please let us know.

How to open a ISFF file:

The best way to open an ISFF file is to simply double-click it and let the default assoisated application open the file. If you are unable to open the file this way, it may be because you do not have the correct application associated with the extension to view or edit the ISFF file.

This file format was added to our database by a visitor to this site, but no additional information was provided. We have yet to investigate this file type further, or there was not enough information available at the time to report accurately on the format.

Please check back soon for more information as we are constantly updating our file descriptions based on search frequency.

Tip: Try to open the ISFF file using a text-editor such as Notepad, as many file types contain simply contain unformatted plain-text and can viewed correctly using this method.

Although I haven't seen an .ISFF file, I'm pretty sure it stands for Intergraph Standards File Format. That standard is used to define a data structure used by a couple of software developped by Intergraph, a company specializing in Spatial data management (Geographic information systems).

Microstation is one of the most popular software developped by Intergraph. It is a computer assisted drawing software similar to AutoCAD that uses .DGN graphics files which are modeled after that standard.

A detailed description of that standard can be found here: http://dgnlib.maptools.org/dgn.html Basically it identifies basic drawing elements and how to stock them in the computer's memory. That way, you can be sure that an ISFF compliant software will be able to read ISFF files.
