You can import media in any of the following formats:
Note: When you import .dpx media from Autodesk Flame®, you import the media with LUT. To disable the import conversion, see Importing Media.
| Format | File extension | Supported bit depths for imports |
| Bitmap | .bmp | 8 |
| Cineon | .cin | 10 |
| DPX | .dpx | 8, 10, 16 |
| HDR | .hdr | 32 |
| IFF | .iff | 8, 16, 32 |
| JPEG /JFIF | .jpg, jpeg | 8 |
| Open EXR | .exr | 16 bit float, 32 |
| Photoshop | .psd | 8 |
| PICT | .pict | 8 |
| PNG | .png | |
| QuickTime | .mov | |
| SGI | .sgi | 8 |
| Targa | .tga | 8 |
| TIFF | .tif, .tiff | 8, 16, 32 |
Note: Bit depths 8, 10, and 16 are integer unless otherwise indicated. Bit depth 32 is float.
You can publish results in any of the following media formats. For 4K and higher media, support is limited to tiled formats (OpenEXR, TIFF, and IFF).
| Format | File extension | Bit depth of published result |
| Bitmap | .bmp | 8 |
| Cineon | .cin | 10 |
| DPX | .dpx | 10 |
| HDR | .hdr | 32 |
| IFF | .iff | 8, 16, or 32, depending on the composition. The media you create has the same bit depth as the composition. For 16-bit compositions, the bit depth of the created media is 16-bit integer (not 16-bit float). |
| JPEG /JFIF | .jpg, jpeg | 8 |
| Open EXR | .exr | 16 bit float, 32 |
| PNG | .png | |
| SGI | .sgi | 8 |
| TIFF | .tif, .tiff | 8, 16, or 32, depending on the composition. The media you create has the same bit depth as the composition. For 16-bit compositions, the bit depth of the created media is 16-bit integer (not 16-bit float). |
Note: Bit depths 8, 10, and 16 are integer unless otherwise indicated. Bit depth 32 is float.
Toxik guesses the pixel aspect ratio of images by comparing an image's resolution with a list of common combinations of pixel aspect ratio and resolution. You can, however, override the guess that Toxik makes.
Toxik can also store and retrieve the pixel aspect ratio information from file formats, such as .bmp, .jpg, .tiff, and .dpx. As a result, you get accurate pixel aspect ratio information of these types of images.
You can work with mixed resolutions in Toxik. If a tool receives multiple inputs which have different image aspect ratios and bit depths, Toxik changes the image aspect ratio and bit depth of all inputs to that of the primary input for the tool. When the original image aspect ratio/bit depth of an input does not match that of the primary input of a multiple input tool, the input tab on the tool node turns red to indicate the difference.
