 =====File conversion=====
-LipidXplorer supports the generic file formats *.mzML and *.mzXML. Raw spectra as they are produced by the mass spectrometer have to be converted into one of those formats before they can be used with LipidXplorer. The recommended converter is [http://proteowizard.sourceforge.net/downloads.shtml MSConvert] from the ProteoWizard package. It supports the formats of the main mass spectrometer vendors and is maintained by a team of developers. It comes with an easy-to-use graphical user interface.
