NEF to PS Converter

NEF (Nikon Electronic Format) is Nikon's proprietary raw image format used by Nikon digital cameras. It contains unprocessed data directly from the camera's sensor.

Like other raw formats, NEF files preserve maximum image information, allowing for extensive post-processing adjustments to exposure, white balance, and color without degradation.

NEF files typically contain more bits per pixel than processed formats like JPEG, capturing more detail in highlights and shadows for greater dynamic range.

The format includes metadata about camera settings, lens information, and sometimes includes a small JPEG preview embedded within the file.

NEF specifications vary between different Nikon camera models, with newer cameras typically producing files with more advanced features and higher bit depths.

NEF files can be opened with Nikon's proprietary software like Nikon ViewNX-i or Nikon Capture NX-D, which offer specialized support for Nikon cameras.

Professional photo editing software like Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, and Camera Raw fully support NEF files from most Nikon camera models.

Third-party raw processors like Capture One, DxO PhotoLab, and RawTherapee also provide excellent support for NEF files.

For quick viewing, many image viewers and operating systems now include built-in support for NEF thumbnail previews.

To convert NEF files to standard image formats like JPEG, TIFF, or PNG, use our specialized raw image converter. Upload your NEF file and select your desired output format.

When converting from NEF to processed formats, you'll have options to adjust exposure, white balance, and other parameters before finalizing the conversion.

For preserving maximum image quality when converting NEF files, 16-bit TIFF format is recommended as it can retain more of the original data's bit depth.

For efficient storage while maintaining raw data, consider converting NEF files to DNG (Digital Negative) format, which is designed as a universal raw format.

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.

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.

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.
