HDR to JXL
File Converter

HDR (Radiance RGBE image format) is an image file format designed to store images with a broad range of luminance levels, from deep shadows to bright highlights, capturing more detail in both areas than standard digital imaging formats. This format is commonly used in photography and computer graphics to achieve more realistic or artistically enhanced representations of light in images. However, HDR files can be larger in size, and they require compatible software and displays to fully appreciate the enhanced dynamic range.

JXL stands for JPEG XL, a next-generation image coding standard developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). JPEG XL is designed to provide efficient compression for both lossless and lossy image storage, offering high image quality at lower file sizes compared to previous standards. It supports a wide range of features including high dynamic range, wide color gamut, and progressive decoding, making it suitable for use in various applications from web graphics to professional photography. Despite its advantages, as a newer standard, JPEG XL may not yet have widespread support across all platforms and software.
