Using Bitmap Pattern Fills

Open Pattern Fill Window
Create a rectangle at least 3" wide and high, with no fill. Select the rectangle with the Pick Tool. Choose the Fill Tool from the Toolbox to open the fly-out. Choose the third icon to open the Pattern Fill Window.

Choose Bitmap Pattern Type
Choose the Bitmap option in the Pattern Fill window.

Choose Bitmap Pattern
Choose the Bitmap pattern you would like to use from the drop-down pattern selector.

Pattern Fill Results
Your rectangle will be filled with the Full Color pattern. If you would like the pattern repeat to be larger or smaller, or start in a different position within your object, see Pattern Fill Options later in this tutorial. Note how one repeat of the pattern you chose fits exactly into a 2" square. The default size for pattern fills is 2".
