NRW to SVG Converter

Nikon RAW (NRW) is a raw image file type produced by the Nikon COOLPIX series and other Nikon digital single-lens reflex (SLR) cameras. Nikon has used NRW since 2008 to capture and store unprocessed images for its professional-level cameras. In comparison to NEF (Nikon’s other raw format), NRW supports useful features, such as Windows Imaging Component (WIC) .

How to open an NRW file?

Nikon Capture NX-D is the most common program for opening NRW. (It replaced Nikon Capture NX 2.) On Microsoft Windows, the NRW Codec supports NRW. On macOS, use Nikon Capture NX-D for Mac. ViewNX is a really great program that Nikon bundles with the purchase of their cameras, with the added benefit that it complements Capture NX-D.

Alternative programs for opening NRW include HDR Darkroom, Zoner Photo Studio, and Corel PaintShop Pro. NRW can be easily converted to JPEG format using FreeConvert.com ( NRW to JPG ). A great multiplatform converter for NRW is XnView MP. On Linux/Unix, try darktable, which is open-source, cross-platform, and free. Other programs to consider include Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, HDR Darkroom, and Zoner Photo Studio.

Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is a resolution-independent, open-standard file format. It is based on Extensible Markup Language (XML), uses vector graphics, and supports limited animation. The main benefit of using an SVG file is, as the name implies, its scalability. This file type can be resized without a loss in image quality. In addition, SVG is unique in that it is not an image format. Instead, it is an XML-based standard that provides information for creating two-dimensional vector images.

How to open an SVG file?

SVG files open readily in most web browsers, such as Firefox or Microsoft Edge. In addition, since SVG is an XML file, you can view the XML-associated text in any common text editor, such as Windows Notepad or Brackets for macOS.

It is possible to use Adobe programs for opening and editing SVG files. Just be sure to install the SVG Kit for Adobe Creative Suite plug-in first. Converting SVG files is possible with the aid of a few online tools. For conversion to non-vector file types, try our SVG to GIF or SVG to PDF tools. To convert to vector files like SVG into JPG, try our SVG to JPG or SVG to PNG tools.
