About formats

RGBO is a raw pixel data format designation used by ImageMagick, the open-source image processing suite first released in 1990, representing images as a flat sequence of Red, Green, Blue, and Opacity (inverted alpha) sample values with no header, container, or compression. The RGBO channel ordering specifies that the fourth channel is opacity rather than alpha — where alpha represents transparency (0 = transparent, max = opaque), opacity represents the inverse (0 = opaque, max = transparent). This distinction matters in compositing pipelines where the mathematical convention for the fourth channel varies between systems: some compositing models work with alpha (transparency), while older conventions including portions of ImageMagick's internal processing historically used opacity. RGBO files contain raw sample data at a user-specified bit depth (8-bit, 16-bit, or floating-point per channel), with pixels stored in scanline order. Because there is no header, the image dimensions, bit depth, and endianness must be specified externally when reading the file — typically via ImageMagick command-line arguments. One advantage is direct compatibility with processing pipelines that use the opacity convention: RGBO eliminates the need for channel inversion when interfacing with systems that expect opacity rather than alpha, preventing subtle compositing errors that occur when transparency conventions are mixed. The format's raw-data nature provides another practical benefit — with no encoding overhead, RGBO data can be memory-mapped, processed with SIMD instructions, or piped between processes with minimal latency. RGBO is primarily used within ImageMagick processing chains and can be converted to any other format using ImageMagick's extensive format support.
Initial release: 1990
FB2 (FictionBook) is an XML-based ebook format created by Dmitry Gribov in 2004, designed to provide a clean semantic description of a book's content independent of its visual presentation. Unlike page-layout formats, FB2 encodes structure — title, authors, chapters, annotations, genres, epigraphs, poems, footnotes, and binary attachments (typically cover images) — within a single well-formed XML document. This structural approach means reading applications have full control over rendering, allowing the same file to adapt perfectly to a small phone screen or a large e-ink reader. FB2 became enormously popular in Russia and Eastern Europe, serving as the dominant format on major Russian digital libraries and ebook distribution platforms. One significant advantage is metadata richness: the format's schema mandates detailed bibliographic information including author, translator, series position, publication date, and genre classification, making library management and discovery straightforward. The plain-text XML foundation is another strength — FB2 files are human-readable, easy to validate, and simple to transform using standard XML tools like XSLT. The format specification is freely available on GitHub, and a wide ecosystem of readers, editors, and converters supports it across all major platforms, from desktop applications like Calibre to dedicated e-readers with native FB2 rendering.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert RGBO to FB2?

Raw RGBO data lacks compression and file headers, making it unviewable in standard tools. FB2 provides a structured, widely supported alternative.

What programs open FB2 files?

FB2 files can be opened in FBReader, Calibre, CoolReader, and many e-reader apps on Android and desktop.

Is RGBO to FB2 conversion lossless?

The pixel data from your RGBO source is mapped faithfully to FB2. Whether the result is lossless depends on the FB2 format's compression method.

Why choose FB2 format?

FB2 offers structured ebook, XML-based, popular in Russia/CIS. Converting RGBO content into FB2 makes it ready for e-readers and digital distribution.

Does the converter handle batch RGBO uploads?

Absolutely. You can upload multiple RGBO sources simultaneously and convert all of them to FB2 in one go — no need to repeat the process.
