How to Convert CRW to PS

STEP 1

Click inside the file drop area to upload your CRW file or drag & drop it.

Locate your CRW file on your device—typically used for various purposes. Ensure the file is under 50MB to avoid upload issues. If the upload fails, check your internet connection or try compressing the file first.

STEP 2

Select PS as the output format and click the 'Convert' button.

Choose PS based on your needs—different formats suit different purposes, like JPEG for smaller file sizes. The conversion process typically takes a few seconds, depending on file size and server load.

STEP 3

Download the converted PS file instantly after conversion.

Once the conversion is complete, click the download link to save your PS file. You can then open it in software like a compatible viewer. If the file doesn’t download, ensure your browser allows pop-ups from RunConvert.

STEP 4

You can also send a link to the converted file via email. (Optional)

Enter an email address to receive a secure link to your converted file, which is useful for sharing with clients or accessing later. Links expire after 24 hours for security, and RunConvert ensures your data is protected during transmission.

What is CRW (Canon Raw)?

CRW (Canon Raw) is Canon's original raw image format used by older Canon digital cameras before the introduction of the CR2 format. It contains unprocessed data directly from the camera's image sensor.

CRW files use a CIFF (Camera Image File Format) container structure developed by Canon, storing both raw sensor data and associated metadata in a proprietary format.

As with all raw formats, CRW files preserve more information than processed formats like JPEG, allowing for greater flexibility in post-processing for exposure adjustment, white balance correction, and other edits.

How to open CRW?

CRW files can be opened with Canon's older Digital Photo Professional software versions that support this legacy format.

Professional photo editing software including Adobe Photoshop (with Camera Raw), Adobe Lightroom, and Capture One Pro support CRW files from supported camera models.

For basic viewing capabilities, software like FastStone Image Viewer and IrfanView (with appropriate plugins) can display CRW files.

CRW is Developed by: Canon Inc.

CRW was Released on: 2001

How to convert CRW?

To convert legacy CRW files to modern formats like JPEG, TIFF, or the newer CR2/CR3 formats, use our specialized raw converter that supports older Canon raw files.

For archival purposes, converting CRW files to the more universal DNG (Digital Negative) format helps ensure long-term compatibility as support for older proprietary formats may diminish over time.

Our batch conversion tools can process entire collections of CRW files from older Canon cameras, making it easy to modernize your entire photo archive.

What is PS (PostScript)?

PS (PostScript) is a page description language developed by Adobe that describes the appearance of text, graphics, and images on a printed page. It was revolutionary in desktop publishing and printing industries.

Unlike EPS, which is a single graphic, PS files can contain multiple pages and are primarily used for printing documents rather than for embedding graphics into other documents.

PostScript files contain programming instructions that describe precisely how text and graphics should appear on a page, enabling consistent reproduction across different printers and devices.

How to open PS?

PS files can be viewed and printed using software like Adobe Acrobat Distiller, Ghostscript with GSview, or PostScript viewers.

For macOS users, Preview can open many PostScript files, rendering them for on-screen viewing.

Some professional printing software packages also support direct import and processing of PostScript files.

PS is Developed by: Adobe Systems

PS was Released on: 1984

How to convert PS?

To convert PS files to more widely supported formats like PDF, use our online converter that maintains all text, graphics, and layout elements from the original PostScript file.

Converting PS to PDF is the most common conversion path, as PDF preserves all PostScript elements while adding features like compression and web compatibility.

For image-based outputs like PNG or JPG, our converter will rasterize the PostScript content at your specified resolution.

Q: What is the difference between a raster and vector image?

A: Raster images are made up of pixels (like JPG or PNG), and they lose quality when resized. Vector images, on the other hand, are made with paths and can be scaled without losing quality (like SVG or EPS). Knowing which type you need helps you choose the right format for your project.

Q: Do I need an internet connection to convert images?

A: Yes, you do need an internet connection to upload and download images for conversion. As long as you’re connected, RunConvert will handle the rest.

Q: What happens if my image is too large to upload?

A: If your image is too large to upload, consider reducing the file size using image compression tools or resizing the image before uploading. RunConvert supports file sizes up to a few hundred MB, but larger images might face upload limitations.

Q: How do I make sure my image file is not too large for conversion?

A: If you're concerned about image size, try reducing the resolution before uploading. Most image editing software allows you to change dimensions and compress files. RunConvert supports files up to several hundred MB, but if your file is extremely large, it may be best to shrink it a little first.

Q: How do I convert a photo to a vector graphic?

A: To convert a photo to a vector graphic, you need to use a process called vectorization, which is typically done using specialized software. While RunConvert can help you convert raster photos to vector formats like SVG or EPS, the quality may vary depending on the complexity of the image.
