-Array of the physical type of media used as well as the encoding and density. It is represented as a string structured as ''{media}_{encoding}_{density}''. If the format supports more than a single value for either the media or density parameters, you can separate the values with a ``|`` or use a ''*'' as a wildcard value. Being as specific as possible speeds up the analysis process as it limits the number of comparisons that need to be done.+Array of the physical type of media used as well as the encoding and density.
