The AI file extension stands for Adobe Illustrator Artwork and is predominantly used for vector graphics in design and illustration. Introduced by Adobe Systems in 1987 with the release of Adobe Illustrator, AI files are essential in professional graphic design due to their scalability without loss of quality. These files support a range of features including shapes, paths, and text, allowing for detailed and versatile artwork creation. As a standard in the industry, AI files are widely supported by various graphic design software, ensuring compatibility and ease of use in diverse digital projects.
The CALS (Continuous Acquisition and Life-cycle Support) Type 1 Image file format, developed by the United States Department of Defense in the mid-1980s, is a standard for storing raster (bit-mapped) image data, typically black-and-white. It ensures efficient data interchange and retention of orientation metadata. The format supports both uncompressed and compressed (using CCITT Group 4 compression) images. This standard was part of the broader CALS initiative aimed at improving electronic publishing and data management within the federal government.
