| Description | The PAT format is a specific type used in graphic editors to store image patterns or templates. The file comprises repeating elements that can be overlaid onto illustrations, images, or backgrounds, providing styling and decoration. The main draw of the PAT format is its ability to streamline the creation of visually consistent compositions, enabling designers to rapidly apply pre-made patterns. |
| Technical details | One must take into account the resolution and color palette settings when working with patterns in the PAT format, as these variables influence the final image quality. A single PAT file can house multiple patterns of varying sizes and styles, thereby broadening design possibilities. Specialized graphic software, which allows for the importing and exporting of patterns, is typically employed to edit PAT files. |
