The HDT file extension is a HDRT Photoshop HDR Toning Preset File. It is used for storing multiple High Dynamic Range toning presets created and saved with the Adobe Photoshop software. HDT files are capable of saving tonal mapping curve settings, preset thumbnails, strengths and settings of various tone compression options.
File Content
HDT files contain xml-based text which is not readable by any text editing software due to its complex formatting. The content in these files are usually settings regarding various techniques and effects related to controlling tonal values within the image. HDT files also store thumbnail preview information and color space settings for resulting HDR effect.
Associated Files and Similar Formats
HDT preset files are used only with Adobe Photoshop. They can be identified with their HDRT file extension and can be opened like other preset files using the Preset Manager. Other similarly associated Photoshop preset files include .aco, .grd, .ash, and various other image and tone setting presets.
Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for MAC system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .HDT) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .HDT extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .HDT file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .HDT extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .HDT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .HDT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .HDT file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .HDT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .HDT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .HDT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
