Understanding EPS and HDR Formats

Learn about the source and target file formats to understand what happens during conversion.

Source Format

Encapsulated PostScript

application/postscript

EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) is a vector graphics format based on the PostScript page description language, capable of containing vector paths, text, and embedded raster images. It includes a bounding box definition and optional low-resolution preview for display in applications that cannot interpret PostScript. EPS has been an industry standard in professional print production for decades.

Advantages

  • Industry-standard vector format for professional print production
  • Can contain both vector and raster elements in a single file
  • Precise control over color separations and print output

Limitations

  • Legacy format being superseded by PDF for print workflows
  • No native transparency support in the original EPS specification
  • Complex PostScript code that is difficult to edit directly

Common Uses

  • Print-ready logos and vector artwork for commercial printing
  • Stock vector graphics distribution and licensing
  • Legacy print production and prepress workflows

Target Format

Radiance HDR Image

image/vnd.radiance

HDR (High Dynamic Range) Radiance format, also known as RGBE, stores images with a high dynamic range of luminance values using a run-length encoded format. Developed by Greg Ward for the Radiance lighting simulation system, it encodes each pixel as three 8-bit mantissas and a shared 8-bit exponent. HDR images capture a much wider range of brightness than standard 8-bit formats.

Advantages

  • Captures a wide dynamic range of lighting from very dark to very bright
  • Relatively compact encoding for high dynamic range data
  • Widely supported in 3D rendering, game engines, and compositing software

Limitations

  • Lower precision than 32-bit EXR for demanding visual effects work
  • Not suitable for direct display without tone mapping
  • Limited to RGB data with no alpha channel support

Common Uses

  • Environment maps and image-based lighting in 3D rendering
  • HDR photography merging and tone mapping workflows
  • Lighting simulation and architectural visualization
