JPEG viewer and JPG viewer

Use N1 as a JPEG viewer or JPG viewer for ordinary photo folders, with JPEG / JFIF and JPEG XR / WDP handled alongside PNG, WebP, TIFF / TIF, BMP and GIF.

Everyday image formats

JPEG / JFIF, JPEG XR / WDP, PNG, WebP, TIFF / TIF, BMP and GIF are supported alongside newer and professional formats.

HEIC, AVIF and JPEG XL

N1 supports HEIC / HEIF and AVIF through supported Windows imaging paths, and JPEG XL through the Microsoft JPEG XL Image Extension / WIC where available. Supported HDR AVIF and HDR JPEG XL content can enter the wider HDR presentation pipeline when their decode paths and metadata allow it.

N1 also handles PSD, TIFF / TIF, WebP and JPEG XR / WDP files, so working folders can mix source images, exports and web-ready files without forcing you into a separate viewer for each format.

PSD, TIFF, WebP and JPEG XR viewer support

Camera RAW viewer

Supported RAW formats include DNG, CR2, CR3, NEF, ARW, ORF and RW2. RAW files use the same Filmstrip, Gallery, comparison and culling workflow as other images.

OpenEXR and Radiance HDR

OpenEXR support covers common single-part HALF / FLOAT RGB, RGBA and grayscale images with supported scanline/tiled layouts and common compression modes. Radiance HDR uses native RGBE / XYZE decoding with supported orientations and primaries converted into the linear scRGB pipeline.

PSD and mixed-format folders

PSD files can sit alongside JPEG, PNG, RAW and modern compressed formats in the same local folder browser. This is useful for working directories that contain source images, selects and exports together.

Supported image formats

  • JPEG / JFIF · JPEG XR / WDP · PNG · WebP · TIFF / TIF · BMP · GIF
  • HEIC / HEIF · AVIF · PSD · JPEG XL
  • OpenEXR · Radiance HDR
  • DNG · CR2 · CR3 · NEF · ARW · ORF · RW2

Part of the full N1 workflow
