What image file formats are supported in Digimarc Validate?

16 November 2023

Virtually all file-types are supported, but application varies by enhancement software. Unsupported image file formats include vector and line-art, palletized images, true black and white, and single-channel grayscale.
Note
Many grayscale images are truecolor monochrome, meaning the image has color space into which our watermark payloads can be applied. However, many formats tend not to store the actual color values in each pixel. Instead, they create a palette of shades from the original image. These kinds of “palettized” images aren't supported.
