The '''CMU Andrew Toolkit image''' is a format developed at Carnegie Mellon University in conjunction with the [[Andrew File System|Andrew system]].

There is reportedly a pure-bitmap CMU format as well, but no details have been located on it.

CMU Andrew Toolkit image (or Andrew Toolkit raster object) refers to the use of the Andrew Toolkit Data Stream format to store raster images.

The Data Stream format is a multimedia format developed at Carnegie Mellon University in conjunction with the Andrew system. It is an ASCII text file containing a series of elements which can specify text, raster images, and other objects. Its raster image features are notable in that they are supported by some third-party software.
