        ABSTRACT           = {
The main intention of this paper is to encourage discussion
about standards for Petri net file formats.
We present criteria for good formats and estimate their
significance for different classes of involved persons.
The following persons are considered:
\begin{enumerate}
\item the designer of a Petri net tool who should integrate analysis algorithms
      and editors implemented by different persons at different locations;
\item the programmer of an analysis algorithm or a net editor, and
\item a user who wants to edit or analyse nets.
\end{enumerate}
The PEP file format serves as an example to explain design decisions.
