JPEG XL support

[Foxtrot314]

Hello, I would like if JPEG XL support was added into Photoshop. It would allow me to use single format for lossy and lossless photos.

Thanks.

Any updates on this?

Just a note, Apple has added native JPEG XL support to macOS Sequoia.

think Apple is now using JPEG XL in the latest iPhone

Adding another vote for JPEG XL open/export support in Photoshop, and improved open/export in Bridge and Camera RAW.

It's frustrating that it's been supported on Apple platforms for over a year (introduced in Safari 17 last year for iOS and macOS) and the native support improved even further this year across iOS/macOS (e.g. you can now just open a .jxl file in Preview and Finder like any other image), but there's still no way to directly open or export a .jxl from Photoshop.  For a current web project we're working on, we have to output images from Photoshop as PNG and then have scripting to run them through a JPEG XL encoder.

Given its significant size and performance advantages over JPEG and the continued expansion of support by CDNs, online stores and other tools, having the ability to export a .jxl from Photoshop is a must.  It should work like the current JPEG export, allowing quality to be configured for lossy or lossless.

Bridge and Camera RAW's implementations are also incomplete and don't correctly decode/render some .jxl files (wrong tone mapping, etc).

Some of the features that caught my attention when reading about JPEG-XL were:

• Royalty-free
• Lossless transcode from "legacy" JPEG files
• Wide Gamut and HDR
• Multiple frames (Animation, pages, layers [don't have to match canvas dimensions])
• support for color spaces, transfer curves
• support for arbitrary channels/components (up to 4099)
  • CMYK, grayscale, RGB, alpha, thermal, depth, etc.
• parallelizable compression (so I would expect processors with more cores can handle the format for efficiently)

I have to wonder what they envisioned when they decided to allow up to 4099 channels...
