What's an NSO file?

In order to maintain the ability to edit NetStudio Easy Web Graphics pictures, a special file is saved in addition to the saved file format (BMP, GIF, JPEG, or PNG). NetStudio Easy Web Graphics automatically saves two versions of each file saved: the file format specified by the user and a proprietary NetStudio Easy Web Graphics Object (NSO) file. The NSO file maintains the information necessary to edit graphic files processed in NetStudio Easy Web Graphics. * Also, NetStudio Easy Web Graphics will automatically open the NSO file if the sibling file is opened in NetStudio Easy Web Graphics.
