About the AI format
AI — Adobe Illustrator
AI is Adobe Illustrator's native file format. Modern AI files are based on PDF, making them compatible with PDF readers for viewing while retaining full Illustrator editing capabilities including layers, live effects, artboards, and linked/embedded assets.
Common uses
- Professional vector illustration and logo design
- Brand identity and graphic design projects
- Print and web vector asset creation
- Exchanging editable vector files with designers
About the BZ2 format
BZ2 — Bzip2 Compressed File
BZ2 is a single-file compression format using the bzip2 algorithm (Burrows-Wheeler transform + Huffman coding). It consistently achieves 10-15% better compression ratios than gzip for text and source code, making it preferred for bandwidth-sensitive distributions. Like gzip, it compresses only a single file — directories must be bundled with TAR first.
Common uses
- Compressing large text files and source code archives
- Linux package distribution (.deb source packages)
- Scientific data compression
- Bandwidth-sensitive file distribution
