- Description
- The PAT file format is a pattern file used by CorelDRAW, a vector graphics editor developed by Corel Corporation. It contains patterns that can be applied to fills, outlines, and textures within graphic projects to enhance visual appearance and add complexity to designs. These patterns range from simple geometric designs to more intricate images, allowing users to apply textures and motifs seamlessly across their artwork. PAT files are utilized to store and share custom patterns, facilitating consistency and creativity in graphic design projects.
- A GIF file is an image file often used for web graphics. It may contain up to 256 indexed colors with a color palette that may be a predefined set of colors or may be adapted to the colors in the image. GIF files are saved in a lossless format, meaning the clarity of the image is not compromised with GIF compression.
