Adobe Illustrator (AI)

The Adobe Illustrator (AI) file format was developed by Adobe Systems, Incorporated for the Macintosh and Windows platforms. It is

primarily vector-based, although later versions support bitmap information.

You can import AI files for use in CorelDRAW or export CorelDRAW files to the AI file format. Before exporting a document as an AI file,

you can preflight your document to find potential problems. Preflighting checks and displays a summary of errors, possible problems, and

suggestions for resolving issues. By default, many AI issues are checked during a preflight, but you can disable the issues that you do not

want to check.
