What header value contains the MIME type for a document or message?
The MIME Headers
MIME-Version
This must always be present in any MIME message, and the only recognized value for it is 1.0. It indicates the version of the MIME standard that is in use, of which only one exists so far. Since the present MIME standard permits a great degree of extensibility through the definition of new content types, subtypes, encodings, and the like, it's unlikely that any other MIME version will ever need to be defined, and doing so would necessarily break compatibility with all existing mail programs.
Content-Type
This header defines what type of data is being sent, using what is known as "MIME types". A MIME type is a string that identifies a data format. MIME types always have a slash in them, separating a major type from a subtype. For instance, image/jpeg is the MIME type for JPEG images, where the major type is image.
Content-Transfer-Encoding
Since e-mail messages are still supposed to be limited to the characters in the ASCII set, to ensure compatibility with programs that might not be able to handle anything else, any non-ASCII things needs to be encoded in a manner that can be transmitted in plain ASCII.
Content-ID
The Content-ID header is primarily of use in multi-part messages (as discussed below); a Content-ID is a unique identifier for a message part, allowing it to be referred to (e.g., in IMG tags of an HTML message allowing the inline display of attached images). The content ID is contained within angle brackets in the Content-ID header.
Content-Description
Content-Description is a free-form plain text field that can be used to briefly describe the purpose of a MIME message part. Some mail programs display it along with other information about an attachment in the list of things within a message that can be saved or opened.
Content-Disposition
The Content-Disposition header suggests to the receiving program what should be done with a MIME message part. Acceptable values are inline, indicating that the part is intended to be displayed as a portion of a compound document (e.g., an image to be shown within an HTML document) and attachment, indicating an object to be opened or saved separately.
Multipart MIME Message Bodies
As has been mentioned, the MIME types starting with multipart define structures that contain multiple parts. The most commonly used varieties are multipart/alternative, which indicates that each part is a different version of the same document (e.g., one version in text form and one in HTML) and the viewer ought to pick one and display it; multipart/related, which indicates that the parts form a larger unit intended to be displayed together (e.g., an HTML document and its inline images); and multipart/mixed, indicating a "mixed bag" of different types of data.
Non-ASCII Characters in Headers
The MIME standards also provide a way to get characters outside the ASCII set into the headers themselves, which is useful for people whose names include accented letters, for instance.
What shows the date a workbook report or other document was created or the period it represents?
file date
What is a 10 decibel microphone pad?
If you go with your microphone very close to a loud sound source, the acoustic sound is converted into high audio voltage. To prevent a too high voltage at the input of the pre-amplifier and to get no distortions there, it s good to damp this voltage by 10 dB. That is why you find sometimes a 10 dB pad switch at better condenser microphones. That pad is made by some resistors making a voltage divider. Scroll down to related links and look at "Calculations: voltage divider (potentiometer) - damping pad".

How do you save a copy of the current document without writing over the original version?

What does Control 1.5 do in Microsoft Word?

How can you type on a scaned questionery?
A scanned image is normally a flat image such as a photograph, this is only viewable once scanned rather than editable. If you want to type over a scanned image it needs to be OCR'd (Optical Character Recognition) which captures any computer text. Once this is captured it would have to be converted into a Microsoft Word format for example where you can then edit the file as you would a normal document. Many scanners come with an OCR feature but there are scanning companies who can convert these documents for you to save the trouble.
