- 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 PI4 file type is associated with Degas & Degas Elite, which are image file formats used primarily on the Atari ST series of computers in the 1980s and early 1990s. These files contain bitmap graphics created or manipulated within the Degas or Degas Elite drawing programs, which were notable for their powerful features and user-friendly interfaces during their time. PI4 files specifically represent images saved in a low-resolution mode, which typically means a palette of 16 colors from a selection of 512, at a resolution of 320x200 pixels. The format was widely used for digital art, game design, and multimedia presentations within the Atari ST community.
