About formats

XLSX is the default spreadsheet format for Microsoft Excel since Office 2007, based on the Office Open XML (OOXML) standard published as ECMA-376 and adopted as ISO/IEC 29500. An XLSX file is a ZIP archive containing XML documents that describe workbook structure, sheet data, styles, shared strings, formulas, charts, pivot tables, and relationships between components. Each worksheet is stored as a separate XML part where cells are organized by row and column references with typed values and style indices. The XML foundation enables programmatic spreadsheet creation and manipulation using libraries like openpyxl (Python), Apache POI (Java), and ClosedXML (.NET) without requiring Excel. XLSX dramatically expanded capacity compared to XLS: over 1 million rows and 16,384 columns per sheet, enabling use cases previously impossible in the binary format. One advantage is openness and cross-platform support — the documented OOXML specification enables implementation by LibreOffice Calc, Google Sheets, Apple Numbers, and numerous specialized tools. Built-in ZIP compression is another practical strength: XLSX files are typically 50-75% smaller than equivalent XLS files, and the modular XML structure improves data recovery when files are partially corrupted. The format supports modern Excel features including structured tables, slicers, sparklines, Power Query connections, and real-time co-authoring. XLSX has become the standard format for spreadsheet data interchange across business, scientific, and government domains.

Initial release: January 30, 2007
RGB is a raw (headerless) image format that stores pixel data as a flat sequence of red, green, and blue sample values with no container structure, compression, or metadata. Each pixel is represented by three consecutive bytes (in 8-bit mode) — one for red intensity, one for green, and one for blue — written in scanline order from the top-left corner of the image to the bottom-right. Because there is no header, the image dimensions and bit depth must be specified externally when reading the file. The format supports multiple bit depths: 8-bit (0-255 per channel), 16-bit (0-65535 per channel), and floating-point variants, with 8-bit being the most common. The RGB color model itself reflects how display hardware produces color — by mixing red, green, and blue light at varying intensities — and raw RGB files represent this model in its most direct digital form. With 8-bit channels, three bytes per pixel yield a 24-bit color palette capable of representing 16,777,216 distinct colors. One advantage is zero-overhead processing: without headers or compression to parse, raw RGB data can be memory-mapped, fed directly into GPU textures, or piped between processing stages with minimal latency — valuable in real-time imaging, scientific instrumentation, and computer vision pipelines where every millisecond matters. The format's universal simplicity provides another practical strength — any programming language can read or write raw pixel data with just basic file I/O, making it a reliable interchange format between custom software that may not share support for structured image containers. Raw RGB files are handled by ImageMagick, FFmpeg, and various scientific and graphics tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert XLSX to RGB?

RGB is the SGI native image format — used in 3D graphics, VFX, and scientific visualization on Silicon Graphics systems.

What opens RGB files?

GIMP, Adobe Photoshop, IrfanView, ImageMagick, and 3D/VFX applications like Maya and Nuke support SGI RGB files.

Is RGB the same as SGI format?

Yes — RGB, SGI, and IRIS are all names for the same Silicon Graphics image format with RLE compression support.

Is this free?

Basic conversions are free on Convertio. Premium plans add limits for VFX workflows.

Can I convert on any device?

Yes — Convertio works in any browser on any OS.

Is my data secure?

Uploaded XLSX is deleted after conversion. RGB outputs are removed within 24 hours.
