File Formats - Other Image Files
 

The following image formats are currently supported by the Chasys Draw IES suite. Please note that this list is not exhaustive, and that support for additional formats can be added by installing the appropriate plug-in via the plug-in manager:

The following digital camera RAW formats are currently supported via the Camera RAW plug-in. Please note that this list is not exhaustive:

NOTES   Note #1: Support for Animated PNG is based on the popular APNG specification by Mozilla, not the relatively unpopular MNG specification by the PNG Development Group. Note #2: Requires the Windows Imaging Component (WIC). WIC is included by default on Windows 7 and above. For Windows XP, WIC is included in SP3, and may be downloaded as a stand-alone component for SP2. Note #3: Requires the HEIF and HEVC extensions from Microsoft, or a third-party WIC extension for the same. Alternatively, a DirectSHOW video codec that supports both HEVC and AV1 may be used. Note #4: Loading of videos is dependent on the video codecs that are available on your computer. Chasys Draw IES will generally load any video format that you have a codec for. Note #5: JPEG-XL is still under development and has known issues. As a result of one of these issues, large images cannot be saved in the JPEG-XL format. I also strongly recommend against converting important images to JPEG-XL.

You can add support for more file formats by installing additional file format plug-ins. If you are comfortable with software development, you can also create your own as described in the Software Development Kit.
