.SSF File Extension

An SSF file is data file used by Trimble GIS mapping software applications, which are used with GPS devices to collect field data. It contains GPS position data recorded from a Trimble device. SSF files are used to log GPS data and create custom coordinate systems.

Using GPS Pathfinder Office, SSF files may undergo differential postprocessing to improve the accuracy of recorded positions. Corrected SSF files use the .COR file extension.

Movie subtitles file created in the Structured Subtitle Format (SSF); uses a verbose CSS-like syntax unlike the simple text notation of other popular plain text formats, and therefore is more and difficult to edit manually with a text editor.

The SSF format has not been widely adopted.

An SSF file is a skin used to alter the appearance of Sogou Pinyin Method, a Chinese Pinyin input method editor. It is a Zip-compressed package that stores multiple .PNG images and an .INI configuration file (typically named Skin.ini).

Sogou Pinyin Method is a popular input method editor (IME) among Chinese users. IMEs enable users to create characters that are not available on their input devices, most commonly, keyboards. In this context, Sogou Pinyin Method allows users of QWERTY keyboards to utilize Chinese Pinyin (the official romanization for Standard Chinese) by creating input codes associated with extra characters unavailable on the keyboard.

The Sogou Pinyin Method utility allows users to customize its appearance, which includes icons and text fields. The SSF file stores the images and settings that alter the appearance when loaded.

You can open SSF files with Sogou Pinyin Method in Windows and macOS. When you open the file in Sogou Pinyin Method, the software loads the skin, and the appearance changes.

You can also open SSF files by decompressing them with a Zip decompression tool, such as File Explorer (bundled with Windows), Apple Archive Utility (bundled with macOS), Corel WinZip (Windows), Corel WinZip Mac (macOS), or RARLAB WinRAR (Windows). You will need to change the .ssf file extension to .zip, then you can decompress it and view its contents.
