When should you use RAW photo?
RAW photo can be useful in specialised workflows. Confirm recipient and browser support before choosing it for a public web asset.
Compatibility
FreeImageKit reads a local preview/composite and exports standard formats; development controls are not included.
Convert RAW photo images locally
FreeImageKit has a local decode path for RAW photo. Exports remove source metadata, and still-image routes do not preserve animation or extra pages.
