<application>PostgreSQL</application> provides two distinct way to
store binary data. Binary data can be stored in a table using
- <applicaiton>PostgreSQL's</application> binary datatype
+ <application>PostgreSQL's</application> binary datatype
<type>bytea</type>, or by using the <firstterm>Large Object</firstterm>
feature which stores the binary data in a separate table in a special
format, and refers to from your own tables by an <type>OID</type> value.
