How do I convert DCR files to PPM online?

Upload your .dcr file, choose PPM as the output, and click 'Convert'. The tool instantly processes the RAW image and gives you a .ppm download. Batch conversion is supported for multiple DCR files at once.

Why should I convert DCR to PPM instead of keeping the RAW format?

PPM is a universally supported portable format in Unix/scientific environments, while DCR is a proprietary Kodak RAW format. Converting makes the image viewable and editable in tools that lack DCR support, and PPM's lossless uncompressed nature ensures no quality loss during processing.

What happens to image quality and metadata when converting DCR to PPM?

The converter demosaics the RAW sensor data into an RGB image, preserving the original resolution and bit depth. However, camera-specific metadata (white balance, ISO, etc.) is not retained in the PPM file, and any adjustments are applied based on the tool's default settings. PPM does not support layers or transparency, but these are irrelevant for RAW photos.
