What is a AI file?
AI files are vector graphics files created using Adobe Illustrator. The format was developed by Adobe Systems and is primarily used for creating scalable illustrations, logos, and design elements. Unlike raster images, AI files store paths and shapes based on mathematical equations, which allows them to be resized without losing quality.
This makes AI a preferred choice for professional graphic designers and print studios. The format is often used in combination with other Adobe tools and can be exported to formats like PDF, EPS, or SVG.
How to open AI files
AI files are best opened using Adobe Illustrator, but many other programs can handle them to varying degrees — including CorelDRAW, Affinity Designer, and some versions of Inkscape. Some PDF readers may open AI files because they often contain embedded PDF content.
If you just need to view or convert an AI file, online tools like AnyConv can also help.
