Early versions of the PrintMaster desktop publishing software stored clip art in a pair of files: an .SDR file containing names, and an .SHP file containing graphics. The file formats are fairly similar to those used by The Print Shop.
A related(?) program named NewsMaster also used .SDR and .SHP files, and added an .SDX index file.
