'''Picture Catalog''' ('''.CAT''') is a file format used by at least two Windows 3.x applications by Spinnaker: ''PFS:Publisher'', and ''Brochures and Mailers''. It contains thumbnail images, and other metadata.<br />
<br />
It's plausible that the format is also used by the Spinnaker versions of ''PFS:First Publisher'', but this hasn't been determined.<br />
<br />
The format is Windows-centric, so it's probably not used by any of the DOS software in the "PFS" family. See also [[ART (PFS: First Publisher)]].<br />
<br />
== Format details ==<br />
CAT appears to be derived from the [[IFF]] "CAT" aggregate format, except that it uses little-endian byte order. The [[FourCC]]s remain in the same order as they would in IFF.<br />
<br />
== Identification ==<br />
Files begin with ASCII "{{magic|CAT&nbsp;}}", and have "{{magic|CLIPFORM}}" at offset 8.<br />
