Generation loss — quality may degrade

JPEG uses lossy compression and EXR typically uses lossy mode. Converting means decoding and re-encoding — each cycle can permanently degrade quality. Convert from the original source file whenever possible.

Some metadata may not survive

Your JPEG file may contain EXIF, IPTC, XMP, ICC metadata. EXR has limited or no support for these metadata types. Location data (GPS), camera settings, and color profiles may be stripped during conversion.

Your JPEG image is decoded into raw pixel data, then re-encoded as EXR.

1

Your JPEG file is decoded — the compressed/stored pixel data is expanded into raw RGB pixels

2

Pixels are re-encoded using OpenEXR Image's lossless compression

3

Metadata (EXIF, ICC profiles) is transferred where EXR supports it

4

The EXR file is saved and ready for download

Frequently Asked Questions

Why won't my JPEG file open?

JPEG files may not open if your device lacks the right codec or application. Converting to EXR — a more widely supported format — usually resolves this. EXR (OpenEXR) is a high-dynamic-range format used in VFX, film, and 3D rendering pipelines.

Is it safe to convert JPEG to EXR online?

Yes. CocoConvert encrypts your file via TLS, processes it on isolated servers in Germany, and permanently deletes it within 24 hours. Your files are never shared or analysed.

Will I lose quality converting JPEG to EXR?

JPEG uses lossy compression and EXR typically uses lossy mode. Converting means decoding and re-encoding — each cycle can permanently degrade quality. Convert from the original source file whenever possible. CocoConvert uses high-quality encoder defaults to preserve as much fidelity as possible.

How large can my JPEG file be?

Free users can convert files up to 250 MB each. Pro users get a 5 GB limit per file, and Business API users have custom limits.

Can I convert JPEG to EXR on my phone?

Absolutely. CocoConvert works in any modern browser — iOS Safari, Android Chrome, and all desktop browsers. No app required.
