Saving, exporting, and importing custom palettes

You can save a custom palette as a Painter Custom Toolbox (BOX) file so that its custom content such as custom brushes, papers, patterns, and flow maps are saved with the file. You can share the saved custom toolbox (palette) with others or store it for later use.

You can also export a custom palette to the Painter Palette File (PAL) format to make it compatible with earlier versions of Corel Painter. However, any custom content included in the palette is not saved with the file.
