    Reading old graphics files
    « on: October 30, 2007, 09:36:47 AM »
    Hope that someone can help me, I have lots of graphics files that have been archived for ages. I now want to use them but I can't find a program that will open them.  They are ".ART" files and ".CL3" files  ".ART" is a vector graphics file and ".CL3" is an object based graphic file.

      As for ".ART" files, you should be able to open them with XnView:
      http://www.xnview.com/

      As for ".CL3" files, they are most likely Adaptec/Sonic/Roxio "Easy CD Creator" Layout Files (while making CDs), so you would have to have the above program to open them.

        thanks for the replies,
         however, EasyCd later than version5  does not support CL3 anymore.  I have a couple of hundred designs that I can't access.
        I will look at xnview

        Unfortunately, you're correct.
