Frequently Asked Questions

Is my image data safe?

Absolutely. 100% of the conversion processing occurs inside your local web browser sandbox. No file chunks or metadata are transmitted to our servers or stored anywhere externally.

Will transparency be preserved?

Converting to lossless formats like PNG preserves full transparency (alpha-channel). If you are converting to JPEG, any transparent sections are rendered as solid background colors (customizable in output settings).

Can I convert multiple images at once?

Yes, you can drop or select multiple files simultaneously. Our tool processes and triggers the sequential download of all assets with a single click.

File Format Guide

About DNG

What is a DNG file? A universal, openly documented RAW image format. It stores the same unprocessed sensor data as proprietary formats (CR2, NEF) but isn't tied to a specific camera manufacturer.

How to open a DNG file? Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop, and most OS default photo viewers (Windows/macOS native support is very strong).

Typical use of a DNG file: Archiving RAW photos safely. Photographers convert proprietary RAWs to DNG so they can still open them decades later, even if the camera brand stops supporting the old format.

Origin of the DNG file: Created by Adobe in 2004.

Modern alternatives for DNG: None. DNG is intended to be the ultimate, modern alternative to all proprietary RAW formats.

About HEIC

What is a HEIC file? Apple's proprietary version of the HEIF (High Efficiency Image File) format. It uses advanced video compression algorithms to store photos at high quality taking up half the space of a standard JPG.

How to open a HEIC file? Natively on Apple devices (iOS 11+, macOS High Sierra+). On Windows, it requires installing a specific HEVC extension from the Microsoft Store.

Typical use of a HEIC file: The default photo format for modern iPhones and iPads.

Origin of the HEIC file: Based on the HEVC (H.265) video standard developed by the MPEG group, adopted by Apple in 2017.

Modern alternatives for HEIC: For universal web sharing, HEIC files are almost always converted to JPG or WebP.
