| Description | RAW is a generic term referring to a family of image formats containing unprocessed image data and metadata, which is received directly from image sensors of digital image- or motion picture cameras and/or scanners. RAW files are not usable as images and are often referred to as digital negatives. RAW images directly reflect color and light intensity and therefore demonstrate true color picture. In order to print or view a RAW file, it must be converted to a standard raster graphics format (JPEG). Each camera model has its own RAW extension. Formats are differentiated according camera manufacturers' names: .nef (Nickon), .crw (Canon), .srw (Samsung), etc. |

Camera RAW files contain the maximum quality image data, but they cannot be opened by anyone without specialized software. Converting RAW to PDF produces a page-faithful document that opens on any device, in any browser, and prints exactly as it looks on screen. Drop your .raw file above.
RAW is a family of proprietary camera formats that store unprocessed sensor data exactly as the camera's image sensor recorded it. Each manufacturer — Canon, Nikon, Sony, Pentax, and others — uses its own RAW variant, and most standard applications cannot open them without a dedicated RAW codec. RAW files are the preferred format for professional photography because they preserve the full dynamic range and color information captured by the sensor.
PDF (Portable Document Format) is Adobe's universal document standard, now an open ISO format (ISO 32000). Every operating system, every browser, and every printer driver reads PDF natively. PDF preserves images, typography, and layout exactly as authored, making it the default format for sharing and archiving documents that must look identical on every device.
