About EXR files
EXR files are a high dynamic range (HDR) image file format developed by Industrial Light and Magic (ILM). It is used to store and manipulate high-resolution images and is widely used in visual effects and animation production. EXR files are supported by a wide range of image editing and compositing software, including Adobe Photoshop, Adobe After Effects, and Autodesk Maya.
EXR files can be converted to a variety of other formats, including JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and OpenEXR. Conversion is not always straightforward, as EXR files can contain multiple layers and channels, which can be lost when converting to other formats. Additionally, EXR files are large and can be difficult to work with on slower computers.
Software such as ImageMagick, GraphicsMagick, and OpenImageIO can be used to convert EXR files. However, these tools are often complex and require a certain level of technical knowledge to use.
For those who do not wish to use complex software, or who are looking for a simpler and easier way to convert EXR files, we recommend using the free and easy online website Convert.Guru. Convert.Guru is an easy-to-use online converter that supports all popular image formats, including EXR.

Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our EXR converter.
