About formats

IIQ (Intelligent Image Quality) is the proprietary RAW format developed by Phase One, a Danish manufacturer of medium-format digital camera systems and backs, introduced in 2008 with the P65+ digital back. IIQ files capture the unprocessed readout from Phase One's large-area CCD and CMOS sensors — ranging from 40 to 151 megapixels in current systems — at 16 bits per channel, preserving the full dynamic range, color depth, and spatial resolution of the sensor. The format comes in two variants: IIQ Large (IIQ L), which uses lossless compression for zero-quality-loss archival, and IIQ Small (IIQ S), which applies visually lossless compression to reduce file sizes by approximately 40-60% with negligible quality impact. Phase One's sensor calibration data, including per-pixel defect maps, fixed-pattern noise profiles, and factory color calibration, is embedded in the IIQ file, enabling precise correction during RAW development. One advantage is sheer resolving power and tonal depth: IIQ files from Phase One's flagship systems deliver the highest pixel counts and widest dynamic range available in commercial photography, making them the standard format for museum digitization, fine art reproduction, aerial surveying, and commercial advertising where maximum detail is non-negotiable. Tight integration with Capture One is another key strength — Phase One develops both the camera hardware and the RAW processing software, ensuring that IIQ files receive optimized demosaicing, color rendering, and lens correction tuned to each specific camera-lens combination.

OXPS (Open XPS) is a fixed-layout document format standardized as ECMA-388 in June 2009, representing an evolution of Microsoft's original XPS specification. The format packages fixed-layout pages, fonts, images, and metadata in a ZIP-based Open Packaging Conventions container — the same packaging framework used by DOCX, XLSX, and other Office Open XML formats. Each page is described using an XML markup language that specifies paths, glyphs, images, and canvas elements with precise coordinates, producing documents that render identically regardless of the viewing device or printer. OXPS incorporated several changes from the original XPS: the use of JPEG XR for high dynamic range images, support for the Open Packaging Conventions 2nd edition, and alignment with the Ecma standardization process. Windows 8 and later generate OXPS (rather than XPS) when printing to the Microsoft XPS Document Writer. One advantage is standards-based document fidelity — as an Ecma standard, OXPS provides a vendor-neutral, fully specified format for documents that must look identical everywhere they are rendered, essential for legal filings, regulatory submissions, and archival records. The fixed-layout model is another strength: unlike reflowable formats, OXPS documents preserve exact page composition including precise glyph positioning and vector graphics. Built-in support in Windows and the .NET framework provides native viewing and creation capabilities without third-party software.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert IIQ to OXPS?

Phase One IIQ RAW files are too large and specialized for everyday use. Converting to OXPS produces practical files for sharing, editing, or publishing.

What opens OXPS?

Windows 8+ XPS Viewer, Microsoft Edge, and OpenXPS-compatible tools open OXPS documents.

Will my IIQ photo appear in the OXPS document?

Yes — the IIQ image is embedded in the OXPS document, preserving the visual content in a widely shareable document format.

Do I need to install anything?

No installation at all. The IIQ to OXPS converter runs entirely in your web browser — just visit the page and start converting.

Is IIQ to OXPS conversion free?

Standard conversions are available at no cost. Premium plans add faster processing and higher limits for professional-volume work.
