- 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.
- The iimg file format is associated with Interleaf, a document processing system that was popular for technical publishing in the late 1980s and 1990s. Interleaf files, including those with the iimg extension, were used for creating and managing complex documents that contained text, images, and graphics. These files were part of a sophisticated desktop publishing system that supported advanced layout and formatting options, making it a preferred choice for professional documentation. However, with the decline of Interleaf and the rise of other publishing software, the iimg file type has become less common.
