Technical note

Before you convert ND2 to PCX

ND2 is an N-dimensional acquisition rather than a picture. One file can hold several fluorescence channels, a stack of focal planes, a time series and a mosaic of stitched tiles, each recorded separately by the camera. PCX is a flat image format, so those dimensions have to be resolved into ordinary pictures, and which result is the right one depends on the work: a merged colour composite suits a figure or a presentation, while separate greyscale planes are what quantification needs. A scientific camera records 16 bits per pixel, and the signal of interest often occupies a narrow slice of that range, while PCX shows 8. Conversion applies a display mapping, so two acquisitions that look identical afterwards can hold very different underlying intensities. Treat the PCX output as something to look at and publish rather than something to measure.

I firmly believe working with JPEG — the universal format supported by all devices and apps—is the wisest choice. reaConverter handles these conversions flawlessly.

Working in a print studio means constantly juggling obscure file formats. I used to waste hours Googling converters or installing random software — until reaConverter became my Swiss Army knife. Install it once, and you're set forever. No internet? No problem!

FAQ

ND2 to PCX Conversion

What are ND2 files?

ND2 is the native image format of Nikon NIS-Elements microscopy software. The name refers to N-dimensional data, since a single file can contain multiple channels, focal planes, time points and stage positions along with the acquisition metadata.

What are PCX files?

The PCX (Personal Computer Exchange) image file format is associated with PC Paintbrush, an image editing software initially designed for MS-DOS by ZSoft Corporation. At first, PCX files stored a limited range of colors but in time their range was extended to a 24-bit (true color) palette, and PC Paintbrush was adapted for Windows too. Though widely popular during the days of MS-DOS, the PCX format in time lost its appeal and was gradually replaced by formats such as JPEG and PNG.
