RAW

The RAW image format captures unprocessed data from digital cameras, providing photographers with high-quality images and maximum editing flexibility. Unlike JPEGs, RAW files retain more detail and dynamic range, making them ideal for professional editing. Perfect for those who prioritize image fidelity, RAW files can be converted to JPEG or TIFF for easy sharing while maintaining the integrity of the original shot.

PFM

The Printer Font Metric (PFM) file format is essential for managing font metrics in Windows operating systems. It stores typographic data, ensuring precise font rendering during printing processes. By keeping track of character spacing, kerning, and other metrics, PFM files enhance the overall quality of printed documents. This format is crucial for graphic designers and typographers who seek to maintain consistency in their print designs.
