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.

Why Choose Our Converter?

Efficient ARW (Sony RAW) to XPM conversion focused on fidelity, predictable file sizes, and quick browser-based workflows.

Fast Decoding Pipeline

Native in-browser decoding of ARW frames with optimized memory use for rapid XPM export.

High-Fidelity Rasterization

Linear RAW demosaicing and tone mapping aimed at retaining detail for XPM pixel output.

Editor Friendly Output

XPM creates predictable raster images compatible with legacy editors and toolchains.

Client-Side Processing

Files process locally in the browser to avoid server uploads and protect source RAW files.

Batch-ready Workflow

Process large ARW collections with queueing; practical for multi-shot workflows and tethered sessions.

Adjustable Render Parameters

Choose resolution, denoise strength, and basic color profile handling before XPM export.

Tips and Best Practices

Optimize your conversion workflow with technical recommendations.

Prepare ARW Originals

Inspect ARW white balance and apply camera WB if you want consistent XPM render
Apply lens corrections before rasterizing to avoid baking distortions into XPM pixels
Export sidecar XMP edits so you can reapply settings to other renders
Convert only necessary crops to reduce XPM pixel area and file size
Verify sensor crop and orientation to prevent unexpected pixel rotation in XPM

Choose Target Encoding

Select 8-bit XPM for compatibility and smaller size when 16-bit fidelity is not required
Use 16-bit XPM only if downstream editors explicitly support it to retain more tonal steps
Avoid downsampling for archive masters; create separate lower-resolution XPMs for web
Enable ICC embedding if consistent color is needed and consumer tools accept XPM profiles
Compress outputs into ZIP for storage while preserving original ARW files unmodified

Verify Outputs in Target Tools

Open exported XPM in ImageMagick or GIMP to confirm color and bit depth interpretation
Check histograms to ensure highlight roll-off from demosaic did not clip important data
Compare EXIF summary to ensure essential timestamps and orientation transferred
Preview on the intended display device to catch gamma or profile mismatches
Test single sample conversions before mass-batch operations to validate pipeline

Workflow Reliability

Process batches of 20–50 ARW files to optimize memory and reduce browser timeouts
Keep original ARW files archived; XPM conversion is destructive for RAW specifics
Close heavy GPU tabs to allocate CPU cycles for demosaicing and XPM generation
Use consistent export presets to reproduce visual results across multiple sessions
Download and verify ZIP bundles immediately to avoid accidental data loss

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.
