Saving a group of spectra<br />

■<br />

Save Group is useful for saving a number of related spectra in a single file.<br />

For example, various spectra obtained by running a sample as a split mull and<br />

other spectra collected using a KBr disk could be saved as a group. You could<br />

also save single-beam background and sample spectra as a group before<br />

reprocessing them.<br />

Signing a file<br />

If you have the DS option, you can use Sign File in the File menu to<br />

digitally sign a file that contains a spectrum, experiment,<br />

configuration or options (option file). The visible portion of a digital signature<br />

consists of a user name, a date and a stated reason for signing. A digital signature<br />

also contains encrypted information that guarantees that the file has not changed<br />

since it was signed and that the file can be changed only by a user who enters the<br />

correct name and password.<br />

After you sign a file, you can verify the signature by using Verify File in the File<br />

menu. See “Verifying a digital signature” for details.<br />
