Open AI Files
7 applications in this hubLast updated: May 9th 2024, 17:40 GMT
Files created by Adobe Illustrator come as AI format and they are single-page drawings that are based on vectors. All the AI files consist of paths that are connected by points, rather than bitmap image data.
In order to view the files described above, users need to resort to specialized, third-party software solutions. Fortunately, nowadays there is a wide selection of applications that support the aforementioned AI format and are able to enlarge these files indefinitely with no quality loss (one of the perks of working with vector-based graphics is that quality is preserved up to very high values).
Adobe Illustrator is one of the most popular and recommended application that can be used for opening this file type, but there is a broad range of alternative software solutions to this utility that you can choose from.
Nonetheless, some of the graphic viewers might even rasterize the image, thus affecting the image quality by converting the image stored as an outline into pixels that can be either displayed on a screen or even printed, should the need arise.
It is worth mentioning that from the programs mentioned above, only specialized applications will be able to handle the image layers from AI files.
