The Print Shop
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
The Print Shop is a desktop publishing application from Brøderbund.
Early versions of it stored clip art libraries in a pair of files whose names begin with "GR", and which apparently use extensions ".NAM" and ".DAT". The .NAM file contains names, and the .DAT file contains graphics.
A version of it named The New Print Shop used a variant format with filename extensions ".PNM" and ".POG".

Format
DAT files apparently consist of a 572-byte raw bitmap segment for each (bi-level, 88×52) image. They are usually a multiple of 572 bytes in size.
POG files are apparently the same as DAT files, except that they begin with a 10-byte header whose contents are unknown.
