| Description | Portable Document Format (PDF) was created by Adobe in 1993 as the successor to PostScript — same device-independent vector rendering, but with compression, font embedding, and a self-contained package that opens on any device. In 2008 Adobe published the spec as ISO 32000, making PDF a true open standard. Today it's the default way to share a document that must look identical everywhere. | |
| Benefits | Universal document format readable on virtually every device and operating system. Supports multi-page documents, embedded fonts, vector graphics, and print-ready color management (CMYK, ICC profiles). | |
| Drawbacks | File sizes are 20–40 MB for a 24 MP sensor, versus 5–8 MB for a high-quality JPEG. No web browser, email client, or phone gallery opens them directly — you need a RAW processor to view them. Every camera brand uses its own flavor, and older RAW files sometimes stop being supported as editors move on. | Not a native image format. Converting images to PDF adds container overhead. Editing embedded images within a PDF requires specialized software. |
| Metadata | Stores XMP metadata inline, including copyright, keywords, camera info, and ICC color profiles. | Supports XMP metadata, document properties (author, title, subject, keywords), and embedded ICC color profiles. |
