Quick Tutorial - How To Load PAT in Photoshop

A quick tutorial on how to load PAT file in photoshop



• Make a new document, whatever size you want

• Go to Layer, New Fill Layer, choose Pattern click OK.

You will see a pattern automatically generate, usually with a default photoshop pattern.

• click the Arrow  button next to the pattern box



• Click the Gear button on the right side. Choose Load Pattern, search the PAT file you want to open.




• The other way is, click the Paint Bucket Tool



• Choose the Pattern



Click the Arrow Button



The downside of the Paint Bucket Tool  is when you choose your pattern and paint your document, you can't adjust the scale of your pattern, you still have to go to the first method or go to pattern overlay if you want an adjustable pattern.
