a program that can read a .pal file ?

[vmars316]

Hello & Thanks,
I am looking for a program that can read a .pal file (created by Irfanview (Export option)).
Can't seem to find a freeware that does this .
Not even Irfanview.
Anyone know of one ?
Thanks

General tips about PAL files: http://file.org/extension/pal

• What is a PAL file
• Software that will open, convert or fix PAL files
• Universal free file viewer

Couple of PAL files converters pointers (disclaimer: did not try any of those) :

Free On-line converter (PAL to JPG, BMP TIFF, GI, ICO, PNG, PDF)

Trial-ware converter utility (PAL to JPG, JPEG, BMP, GIF, EPS, PDF, PNG, etc.)

According to a site similar to what __philippe posted, it's a proprietary Corel Draw format. That development house (apart from a brief flirtation with a Linux OS) doesn't do things in a very open way. It would have been interesting to see what would have happened with WordPerfect if they'd opened up the format similar to OpenDocument.

EDIT: according to some old notes, Universal Viewer can read that format. I don't have a way to (easily) test that.
