TYPO3 also has a lot to offer in the area of graphics processing. In the simplest case, the editor integrates finished pictures as content elements. For this, the relevant graphic is selected from the Fileadmin area or loaded on the server from the local hard drive. The showstopper is that TYPO3 is not restricted to dealing with GIF, PNG, or JPEG files—even formats like TIF and PCX, which are not really suitable for the Internet, are not a problem for TYPO3. These file formats are automatically converted.

in the Temp
directory. The easiest way to upload the graphics is using the Images module. To do this, call the module, click on File Upload in the context menu of images and load at least two graphics on the server (what these graphics look like is of no concern).
Normally you can run TYPO3...
