When I say .paf format, I'm talking about the way the program stores the data - .paf is the file extension. If I remember correctly .aq is the Ancestral Quest file extension,

AQ made a change that allows it to work directly with .paf type files, without the need to convert the file to the .aq format. AQ states that there are some advantages to using their file format, but if you leave your data in a .paf type file, you can work on it with either program, and that's what I do.

Eventually when I get more familiar with AQ I may make the file conversion, but for now it's handy to be able to use either program with the same database.
