When setting up an assignment, lecturers should normally select the option NOT to accept "all file types" to avoid the possibility of students submitting the following file types and not getting an originality report.

NOTE: this is not an exhaustive list. Unless the filetype is in the supported list above it will not be accepted.

1. Microsoft Works (.wps) file types.
2. Apple Pages file types.
3. CAD files (e.g. prt)
4. Microsoft Word 2007 macros-enabled (.docm) files (whatever macro is encoded in the file is stripped away when submitted to Turnitin)
5. Password protected files
6. .odt files created and downloaded from Google Docs online
7. .doc files created using OpenOffice as these are not a 100% Microsoft Word equivalent
8. zip or rar files
9. Audio or video files such as .mp3, .mp4, .mov, .wav
