What file formats do you support?

We support over 100 file formats including images (JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, TIFF), documents (PDF, DOC, DOCX, TXT), videos (MP4, AVI, MOV), audio (MP3, WAV, FLAC), and many more specialized formats.

Yes, absolutely. We use enterprise-grade encryption for all file transfers. Your files are automatically deleted from our servers after conversion, and we never store or access your personal data.

What is the maximum file size?

The maximum file size for free users is 100MB per file. Premium users can convert files up to 1GB. For larger files, we recommend our batch processing feature.

How long does conversion take?

Most files convert in under 30 seconds. The exact time depends on file size and format complexity. Our advanced algorithms ensure the fastest possible conversion while maintaining quality.

Can I convert multiple files at once?

Yes! Our batch processing feature allows you to upload and convert up to 50 files simultaneously. This is perfect for bulk conversions and saves significant time.

Do I need to create an account?

No account is required for basic conversions. However, creating a free account gives you access to batch processing, file history, and priority support.

Tips and Best Practices

Optimize your conversion workflow with technical recommendations.

Prepare 3FR Renders

Set final white balance in 3FR render before export to lock color shifts in PICON
Bake local exposure and highlight recovery so PICON thumbnails reflect intended tonality
Convert RAW crop to full-frame export to avoid inconsistent icon aspect ratios
Apply sharpening tuned for target PICON resolution to prevent oversharpening artifacts
Export consistent output dimensions across batch to maintain uniform PICON sizes

PICON Encoding Choices

Choose higher compression quality to preserve edge detail at the cost of larger PICON files
Select sRGB embedding when target viewers lack color-managed rendering to stabilize appearance
Disable unnecessary metadata embedding to minimize PICON footprint when metadata not required
Prefer fixed output dimensions for icons to improve caching and CDN performance
Use stronger compression only for thumbnails where fine detail is noncritical

Integration & Verification

Test PICON outputs in your DAM to ensure the container metadata fields map to expected asset records
Compare PICON preview against 3FR rendered 100% to validate tonal mapping and color clipping
Verify that embedded ICC in PICON is recognized by your target viewer before bulk conversion
Confirm alpha channel handling with target UI to ensure transparency composites correctly
Keep original 3FR files until PICON consumption is validated across platforms

Performance & Privacy

Process batches of 20–50 3FR files to balance memory and speed in-browser
Close other heavy tabs and apps to reduce memory pressure during conversion
When metadata retention matters, generate sidecar XMP to accompany each PICON file
Use local processing to avoid external upload if privacy or IP protection is required
Download converted archives promptly and clear temporary buffers to free device RAM

Fast Processing

Close unused tabs for maximum throughput.

Client-Side Privacy

No media leaves your device.

Broad Compatibility

Output files work across all operating systems.

Pro Tip

For batch conversions, process in groups of 20-50 files to optimize memory usage and avoid browser slowdowns.
