How MMD Handles ORF Data

Dynamic range — the span from darkest to brightest values — is handled carefully during this conversion. ORF Raw Photo preserves the full range. Mermaid Diagram maintains the complete dynamic range. Xonvert preserves embedded metadata (EXIF, XMP, ID3 tags, etc.) whenever the Mermaid Diagram format supports it. Format-exclusive metadata fields that have no equivalent in Mermaid Diagram are gracefully omitted without affecting the converted content. Quality in this conversion depends primarily on your source file. A high-quality ORF Raw Photo input produces an excellent Mermaid Diagram output. Since the target format is lossless, output quality matches your input exactly.

This is a cross-category conversion from Image (ORF Raw Photo) to Diagram (Mermaid Diagram). While these formats serve different purposes, Xonvert extracts the compatible data from your ORF Raw Photo source and maps it into the Mermaid Diagram format. Image files typically contain Olympus camera users and professional photography workflows, while Diagram files are used for GitHub documentation. The conversion bridges these two domains, allowing you to repurpose your content across different workflows.

The ORF to MMD conversion applies format-appropriate algorithms to ensure maximum data fidelity. Contains unprocessed 12-bit or 14-bit sensor data

ORF to MMD Conversion: Your Questions Answered

Can I preview the MMD output before downloading?
Yes. Xonvert shows a preview of your converted file so you can verify the result before saving it to your device.
Can I convert password-protected ORF files?
Encrypted or DRM-protected files cannot be converted. You'll need to remove protection first using the original software.
Can I convert multiple ORF files at once?
Yes! Drag multiple files into the converter for batch processing. All files convert simultaneously and can be downloaded as a ZIP archive.
What's the maximum number of files I can convert at once?
Free users can convert several files per batch. PRO users enjoy unlimited batch sizes. For very large batches, your device's memory is the only practical limit.
Why choose MMD over other formats?
Mermaid Diagram offers renders directly in GitHub, GitLab and many Markdown viewers. It's widely used for GitHub documentation, developer documentation and tech blogs, making it an excellent choice for most diagram needs.
Will my ORF file be deleted after conversion?
No. Your original ORF file is never modified or deleted. Xonvert creates a separate MMD copy — your source file remains untouched.
What image quality settings should I use?
For photos, use the High quality preset. For web graphics, Medium offers a good size-quality balance. The default preset works well for most use cases.
