- 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 PI1 file type is associated with Degas & Degas Elite, which are graphics programs specifically designed for the Atari ST series of computers in the 1980s. These files contain bitmap images created or manipulated within the Degas software environment. The PI1 format supports a palette of fixed colors, characteristic of the graphical capabilities of the Atari ST at the time. It was widely used by artists and graphic designers working with Atari ST computers for digital art creation, game design, and other graphical projects.
