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?

Fast, technical CR2 to PGX conversion focused on quality, predictable file-size tradeoffs and professional workflows

Optimized RAW Decoding

Direct demosaic and linearization stage tuned for Canon CR2 sensor profiles to maximize detail.

High-Fidelity Output

Export to PGX with controllable compression to preserve luminance detail and reduce artifacts.

Client-Side Processing

Conversions occur in your browser memory buffers so source CR2 files are not uploaded to external servers.

Editing-Ready Files

PGX output remains suitable for high-end editors that accept raw raster or linearized image streams.

Adjustable Compression

Choose lossless or lossy PGX parameters to trade final file size against per-pixel fidelity.

Efficient Batch Mode

Process many CR2 files with parallel decoding and queued PGX writes for consistent throughput.

Tips and Best Practices

Optimize your conversion workflow with technical recommendations.

Prepare CR2 for Conversion

Confirm CR2 bit depth (12/14-bit) in camera metadata to choose PGX output precision
Apply camera-specific white balance in RAW editor if you need consistent color before PGX encode
Extract proprietary Canon maker notes separately since they may not transfer to PGX
Crop and rotate prior to conversion to avoid re-encoding overhead in PGX
Save representative CR2 samples for testing compression settings on target printers

Configure PGX Encoding

Select lossless PGX for archival to retain maximum linear detail from CR2 demosaic
Use mild lossy PGX settings to reduce file size while preserving mid-frequency texture
Map CR2 native 14-bit samples into 16-bit PGX to avoid quantization when possible
Include an ICC tag in PGX only if your downstream tools honor it and you validated rendering
When exporting for print, set PGX resolution to match RIP requirements to avoid resampling

Validate Output in Workflow

Open PGX in your target editor to verify tonal curve and highlight rolloff versus CR2 RAW render
Compare histograms and pixel-level detail at 100% to detect compression artifacts
Check that mapped EXIF fields (timestamp, camera) are present if you rely on them in asset systems
Test color conversions on a calibrated monitor and reassign ICC profile if mismatch appears
If alpha or mask is required, confirm PGX variant supports it and validate transparency edges

Performance & Privacy Considerations

Process CR2 batches in groups of 20–50 to balance memory use and throughput in browser
Close other heavy applications to free CPU threads used during CR2 demosaic and PGX encode
Keep CR2 originals offline and use client-side conversion to maintain local privacy
Verify available disk space before creating large PGX lossless exports to avoid write failures
Download and archive converted PGX files promptly; temporary in-memory caches are cleared on refresh

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.
