What happens when you convert TIFF to JPEG 2000?
HDR to SDR
HDR is rendered to SDR using exposure and Reinhard tone mapping.
Encoding mode
JPEG 2000 supports reversible lossless and irreversible lossy coding. A JP2 container, an extended JPX/JPF file and a raw J2K codestream are related but not identical file structures. The output uses the implemented still-image encoder; file size depends on the pixels and format.

JPEG 2000
Compression: Lossy & losslessTransparency: YesMetadata: JP2 boxes, ICC, XML (extensions)
Wavelet-based image coding with reversible and irreversible modes. JP2 containers add colour information around the codestream.

Good choice when
- JPEG 2000 fits your delivery use: Specialised scalable imaging.
- You can choose the source image or part needed for delivery.
- You need an SDR delivery copy and can review its tone mapping.
- You need a transparency-capable destination and will check its supported variant.
Probably not when
- You require a complete collection, page set or multipart round trip.
- You need the original HDR range for relighting or grading.
- You assume format-level alpha support guarantees matching transparent edges.
- You need a guaranteed output file size or archival pixel equality. Encoder settings do not guarantee either.
TIFF to JPEG 2000 conversion details
- Multiple source images
- One page is converted (default: page 1). Choose another page in Advanced options.
- HDR to SDR
- HDR is rendered to SDR using exposure and Reinhard tone mapping.
- Transparency representation
- The implemented target supports alpha. Display-pixel processing can round translucent samples; archival sample equality is not promised.
- Encoding mode
- JPEG 2000 supports reversible lossless and irreversible lossy coding. A JP2 container, an extended JPX/JPF file and a raw J2K codestream are related but not identical file structures. The output uses the implemented still-image encoder; file size depends on the pixels and format.
- Sample precision & colour
- Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
- Metadata & colour
- Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
- Compression
- TIFF: Depends on variant → JPEG 2000: Lossy & lossless TIFF: TIFF is not intrinsically lossless or uncompressed. Read the Compression, BitsPerSample and SampleFormat tags; decoder support varies across schemes. JPEG 2000: JPEG 2000 supports reversible lossless and irreversible lossy coding. A JP2 container, an extended JPX/JPF file and a raw J2K codestream are related but not identical file structures.
- Transparency
- Transparency is replaced with white by default. Change the background in Advanced options.
- Colour depth
- TIFF: Tagged sample types → JPEG 2000: Component-defined precision
- Multiple images
- TIFF: Image directories

- Metadata
- Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
Common questions
Will every source image be exported?
One page is converted (default: page 1). Choose another page in Advanced options.
How will HDR brightness be mapped?
HDR is rendered to SDR using exposure and Reinhard tone mapping.
Which compression mode will JPEG 2000 use?
JPEG 2000 supports reversible lossless and irreversible lossy coding. A JP2 container, an extended JPX/JPF file and a raw J2K codestream are related but not identical file structures. The output uses the implemented still-image encoder; file size depends on the pixels and format.
Are bit depth and colour values guaranteed to match?
Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
Will metadata and colour profiles be retained?
Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
