FAQ
RAF to PGM Conversion
What are RAF files?
RAF is the proprietary format used by Fuji cameras for RAW images. Shooting in RAW mode is often preferred by professional photographers, even though it results in a series of photos that can't be considered as finalized or printed. RAW photos need to pass through a post-processing stage, during which aspects such as color depth, white balance or exposure are adjusted. As opposed to compressed formats such as JPEG, PNG or TIFF, RAF images allow the photographer to have more space for image corrections, foregrounding certain details or hiding others.
What are PGM files?
The PGM or Portable Graymap format is part of a package of open source graphics programs called Netpbm. Other Netpbm formats include PPM (Portable Pixmap) and PBM (Portable Bitmap), also known under the collective name of PNM (Portable Anymap). A PGM file includes a grayscale image, can work on a UNIX platform, as well as on Windows or Mac OS X, and can render a scope of up to 255 grayscale colors.
