| PICT (PCT) technical notes |
|
| • | Corel graphics programs can import vector drawings and bitmaps contained in PICT (PCT) files. |
| • | Objects that contain a fill and an outline open as a group of two objects. One object is the outline, and the other is the fill. |
| • | PICT fills are often bitmap patterns, and the Corel program tries to maintain these fills as bitmap patterns. |
| • | Pattern outlines are converted to a solid color. |
| • | Text in PICT files opens as editable text. If a typeface in the imported file is not available on your computer, it is converted to the font that it most closely resembles. |
