How do I convert a JFIF file to RWL?

Upload your JFIF file, choose RWL as output, and click Convert. The browser-based tool processes locally, then you can download the RWL file. The conversion preserves pixel dimensions and EXIF metadata; however, JFIF's 8-bit/channel depth limits the RWL's bit depth to 8-bit, unlike native Leica raw files.

Why convert from JFIF to RWL?

RWL is Leica's raw image format for professional photography pipelines. Converting a JFIF to RWL lets you integrate a JPEG-processed image into a Leica raw editing session (e.g., in Leica Image Shuttle or SILKYPIX) where you can apply non-destructive adjustments. It also standardizes your archive in a raw container, carrying over embedded color profiles.

What happens to color profiles and EXIF data during JFIF to RWL conversion?

The converter copies the JFIF's ICC color profile, EXIF metadata (including camera settings and GPS), and DPI information into the RWL file without alteration. Since JFIF uses lossy DCT compression, the original sensor data is already lost; the RWL output merely repackages the 8-bit RGB data without further compression, preventing additional quality loss. The actual pixel values remain unchanged.
