This is a work-in-progress pull request with unfinished MNT reader support. It serves to document what we know about MNT.

MNT is a Microsoft Composite Document File (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_File_Binary_Format) that contains the four entries ImagePreview, ScopedContents, ScopedResults and XmlHeader.

  • ImagePreview is a JPG with an overview page of measurement and properties
  • XmlHeader is a UTF-16 encoded XML with administrative metadata such as version information

The other two entries are binary and I presently do not know how to decode them.
