What is a .JXL file?

JXL files are images saved in the JPEG XL (JXL) format, a modern image format developed to provide high compression efficiency while preserving image quality. Introduced in 2020 by the JPEG committee, JXL is designed as a next-generation replacement for older formats like JPEG, PNG, and GIF. It supports both lossy and lossless compression, wide color gamut, high dynamic range (HDR), alpha transparency, and animation. JXL also features progressive rendering and efficient decoding, making it well-suited for web use and archival purposes.

Although JPEG XL is still emerging, you may encounter JXL files when working with cutting-edge web graphics, image-sharing platforms, or experimental photo editing tools that support the format. File Viewer Plus can open and convert JXL files to more widely supported image formats, including JPG, PNG, TIFF, and BMP.
