# The Private Info (Private Information Items) Edit Panel

The Private Information edit panel is used to display and edit Private Information items for the current file selection. The intent of these items is to encapsulate embedded files.

The table displays the items found in the currently selected files.

An item has Length and Description fields used to identify the content of the item.

All editing and manipulation is done via the context menu and is described here.

You can import and export an item's content.

You can save an item's data in one of two ways. The Export context menu item will save the object's data as an exact binary image to the output file. The Dump context menu item will save the data as a hexadecimal dump.

When importing data if the file name extension is anything but .txt an exact binary image of the specified file will be imported. The following rules apply for importing data from a .txt file:

- Except where mentioned in these rules, line termination characters are ignored.
- Spaces and tab characters are ignored
- Only hexadecimal characters are permitted, 0-9, A-F, a-f
- All data on a line before and including a : is ignored.
- All data on a line after and including a | character is ignored

You can use the View context menu item to view the data in the Log Viewer.
