Microsoft has taken the beta tag off a plug-in to let Photoshop read and write files in the HD Photo format, which Microsoft is standardising as JPEG XR.
A new attempt to provide a higher-end sequel to the ubiquitous JPEG image standard is officially under way.
For a computer, dealing with colour is just another maths problem. And Microsoft wants to change the way your PC counts.
Microsoft, while trying to get its HD Photo image format standardised as "JPEG XR", also continues to work on spreading the technology by more conventional means -- such as building Photoshop and Mac OS X support.
Adobe Systems' Digital Negative (DNG) format isn't a competitor to JPEG XR, a format Microsoft created as a higher-end replacement for conventional JPEG, an Adobe executive has predicted.
