What is an AIA file?
An .AIA file is an Adobe Illustrator Action file. These AIA files contain the edited images/content created in Adobe Illustrator, a photo editing software geared towards typesetting and logo graphic designs. Illustrator allows you to create web and mobile graphics, logos, icons, book illustrations, and billboards. With the new cloud feature, you can work from anywhere and on any device. This vector graphic editing program was initially developed for the Apple Macintosh.
