  • This output writer does not preserve source EXIF, GPS or XMP metadata blocks. Original ICC profiles are not copied.
  • EXR V1 accepts single-part scanline RGB/RGBA HALF/FLOAT with linear Rec.709/D65 colour and premultiplied alpha, up to 4 MP. Tiled, deep, multipart, layers and other colour spaces are unsupported. EXR output is HALF RGBA ZIP; EXR editing is unavailable.
  • SDR pixels are converted from sRGB to linear EXR; this does not recover HDR detail.

What happens when you convert CDR to EXR?

Local document import

Supported pages, paths, text, gradients and bitmap resources are imported locally. Document-specific version, font and unsupported-effect diagnostics describe preservation limits. Native Corel layers and print separations are not inferred from drawing groups or RGB appearance.

Vectors become pixels

Supported self-contained static SVG shapes are rasterized at the decoded dimensions. Text, scripts, animation, embedded images and external resources are rejected. Paths become pixels and do not remain editable vectors.

An HDR container adds no captured range

SDR pixels are converted from sRGB to linear EXR; this does not recover HDR detail. EXR V1 accepts single-part scanline RGB/RGBA HALF/FLOAT with linear Rec.709/D65 colour and premultiplied alpha, up to 4 MP. Tiled, deep, multipart, layers and other colour spaces are unsupported. EXR output is HALF RGBA ZIP; EXR editing is unavailable.

Is CDR → EXR right for you?

Good choice when

  • EXR fits your delivery use: Render passes & HDR compositing.
  • You review the document warnings before export.
  • You need a fixed-resolution raster asset.
  • You need an image in an HDR-capable working pipeline.

Probably not when

  • You require a complete CorelDRAW replacement.
  • You need editable paths, text or resolution-independent scaling.
  • You expect new highlight or shadow detail from a container change.
  • You require identical samples without a defined colour and precision policy.

CDR to EXR conversion details

Local document import
Supported pages, paths, text, gradients and bitmap resources are imported locally. Document-specific version, font and unsupported-effect diagnostics describe preservation limits. Native Corel layers and print separations are not inferred from drawing groups or RGB appearance.
Vectors become pixels
Supported self-contained static SVG shapes are rasterized at the decoded dimensions. Text, scripts, animation, embedded images and external resources are rejected. Paths become pixels and do not remain editable vectors.
An HDR container adds no captured range
SDR pixels are converted from sRGB to linear EXR; this does not recover HDR detail. EXR V1 accepts single-part scanline RGB/RGBA HALF/FLOAT with linear Rec.709/D65 colour and premultiplied alpha, up to 4 MP. Tiled, deep, multipart, layers and other colour spaces are unsupported. EXR output is HALF RGBA ZIP; EXR editing is unavailable.
Sample precision & colour
SDR pixels are converted from sRGB to linear EXR; this does not recover HDR detail. EXR V1 accepts single-part scanline RGB/RGBA HALF/FLOAT with linear Rec.709/D65 colour and premultiplied alpha, up to 4 MP. Tiled, deep, multipart, layers and other colour spaces are unsupported. EXR output is HALF RGBA ZIP; EXR editing is unavailable.
Compression
CDR: Not a pixel codec → EXR: Lossy & lossless CDR: CDR remains source only. No conversion writes a CDR document. EXR: EXR supports lossy and lossless codecs. Choose one for the sample types and required precision; .exr alone does not guarantee exact channel preservation.
Transparency
CDR: Yes → EXR: Yes
Colour depth
EXR: HALF 16 / FLOAT 32 / UINT 32
HDR
EXR: Floating-point working values
Multiple images
EXR: Multipart
Dimensions
Conversion keeps the decoded image dimensions unless you edit or resize it. Orientation is applied by supported decoders. ICO fits the image into one selected square size; PDF page layout and rendering DPI are configurable. Device, memory and codec limits still apply.
Metadata
This output writer does not preserve source EXIF, GPS or XMP metadata blocks. Original ICC profiles are not copied.

Common questions

Which source information survives?

Supported pages, paths, text, gradients and bitmap resources are imported locally. Document-specific version, font and unsupported-effect diagnostics describe preservation limits. Native Corel layers and print separations are not inferred from drawing groups or RGB appearance.

Will EXR remain scalable vector artwork?

Supported self-contained static SVG shapes are rasterized at the decoded dimensions. Text, scripts, animation, embedded images and external resources are rejected. Paths become pixels and do not remain editable vectors.

Can EXR recover clipped highlights?

SDR pixels are converted from sRGB to linear EXR; this does not recover HDR detail. EXR V1 accepts single-part scanline RGB/RGBA HALF/FLOAT with linear Rec.709/D65 colour and premultiplied alpha, up to 4 MP. Tiled, deep, multipart, layers and other colour spaces are unsupported. EXR output is HALF RGBA ZIP; EXR editing is unavailable.

Are bit depth and colour values guaranteed to match?

SDR pixels are converted from sRGB to linear EXR; this does not recover HDR detail. EXR V1 accepts single-part scanline RGB/RGBA HALF/FLOAT with linear Rec.709/D65 colour and premultiplied alpha, up to 4 MP. Tiled, deep, multipart, layers and other colour spaces are unsupported. EXR output is HALF RGBA ZIP; EXR editing is unavailable.

Will metadata and colour profiles be retained?

This output writer does not preserve source EXIF, GPS or XMP metadata blocks. Original ICC profiles are not copied. SDR pixels are converted from sRGB to linear EXR; this does not recover HDR detail. EXR V1 accepts single-part scanline RGB/RGBA HALF/FLOAT with linear Rec.709/D65 colour and premultiplied alpha, up to 4 MP. Tiled, deep, multipart, layers and other colour spaces are unsupported.
