About DDS

DirectDraw Surface

Microsoft's DirectX texture container. It usually stores GPU-compressed data (the DXT or BCn formats) with mipmaps, so a graphics card can load it without decoding. Convert to DDS for game textures and mods; convert from it to view or edit a texture.

About EXR

OpenEXR

A high dynamic range format developed by Industrial Light & Magic and open-sourced in 2003. It stores 16-bit or 32-bit floating-point channels with lossless or lossy compression. Use it for visual effects and 3D render output that will be graded or composited without clipping highlights.
