EXR converter

EXR conversions all need the optional server worker, which is not enabled on this deployment. Everything below still explains the format, and the image converter linked below lists every conversion that does run in your browser.

No EXR conversion runs in this browser today. Browser-based image conversions are listed on the image converter page.
