JP2 files: how to open and convert them
JPEG's technically-superior, commercially-stillborn successor. Lives on in archives and Digital Cinema.
What this site can do with JP2
- Open and read: no — and we say so rather than pretend
- Write and convert to: no honest browser encoder exists
- Compression: lossy — a quality slider applies when encoding
- Transparency: supported
No maintained browser-safe JPEG 2000 decoder; use TIFF or PNG for archival instead.
