FAQ

My upload is rejected as too big
NFOmation accepts files up to 300K. The upload page checks the size before anything is sent, so you won't waste your, or our, bandwidth.
What characters are commonly used in NFO files?
There are many commonly used characters in NFO files.
I have put together an Organized NFO Characters File that makes it easy to find the characters you need.
Can I select different views to be default when I link to an NFO?
NFOmation supports many views in the URL. Here are some examples for our Mascot: Personally, I do not know why you would use info.dos, but it's an option, in case we decide to make another view default.
Do the sites linked from an NFO know I came from here?
No. Links in NFO files are opened without sending a referrer, so Amazon, IMDB, etc. don't know you're visiting because their link was in an NFO file.
I am unable to create a direct link to the NFO download.
This is by design to prevent people from abusing our service.
We require all NFO file downloads be done by clicking the Download button.
I am unable to upload an NFO file; the site says "bad file extension"
NFOmation only allows files with extensions ending in .nfo or .txt to be uploaded.
Please verify your file is really an NFO text file and rename it to end with .nfo.
Some NFO files have tabs in them. How does NFOmation handle tabs?
During rendering NFOmation converts all tabs to 8 spaces.
8 spaces is the standard for most POSIX and DOS consoles for a tab character.
During our tests with multiple NFOs containing tabs and formatting characters afterwards, 8 characters caused most layouts to align properly.
I am unable to upload an NFO file; the site says "bad file, looks like you're trying to pull a fast one on us by renaming a file."
NFOmation only allows NFO and TXT files to be uploaded. We analyze each uploaded file to determine if it is really an NFO file. It is very likely that what you tried to upload is not an NFO file. Please verify that the file is an NFO file.
If you know your file is an NFO file, then please email the address on the home page an error report and include the NFO file. If we determine it to really be an NFO file, we will try to make the system recognize your file in the future.
