Image file formats provide a standardized method of organizing and storing image data.
Here is a list of the common formats handled by Contenta-Converter.
2. RAW formats
Raw files, which contain the original information captured by a camera sensor prior
to any in-camera processing, have become popular due to their promise of greater
flexibility and image quality.
Serious photographers want to store raw files in long-term image archives,
because unlike standard JPEG's and TIFF's these files represent the pure, unaltered
capture. Here is a list of the RAW formats handled by Contenta-Converter.
3. Vector formats
Vector formats use geometrical primitives such as points, lines, curves, and shapes instead of pixels
to represent images. A vector graphics program uses the mathematical formulae to construct the screen
image. Since these formulae can produce an image scalable to any size
and detail the quality of the image is only determined by the resolution of the
display and the file size of vector data generating the image stays the same. Printing
the image to paper will usually give a sharper, higher resolution output than printing it to
the screen but can use exactly the same vector data file.
