FAQ
HDR to PSD Conversion
What are HDR files?
The HDR file format (.hdr) is a raster image format designed to store high dynamic range (HDR) data, capturing a wider range of brightness levels than standard formats like JPEG or PNG. Developed by Radiance, it uses a 32-bit floating-point representation per channel, enabling realistic lighting, shadows, and highlights.
What are PSD files?
PSD is the default format for handling images using Adobe Photoshop and it represents a layered image file. PSDs allow later editing of available layers, including transparency, masks, alpha channels and texts, among others. After applying all desired editing, PSD files can be saved in Photoshop under more easily recognizable formats, such as JPEG or PNG, which are also smaller in size but flatten the image and hence do not allow later editing of layers.
