Sobre los archivos RAFComparativa de ventajas
PDF Ventajas

- Supports digital signatures, encryption, and redaction for legal workflows.
- ISO-standardized (ISO 32000) with multiple validated subsets (PDF/A, PDF/X, PDF/UA).
- Supports both vector and raster content, keeping line art crisp at any zoom level.
RAF Ventajas
- Full 14-bit (most bodies) or 16-bit (GFX) sensor data.
- Film simulation recipe stored in metadata.
- X-Trans sensor produces distinctive moiré-free rendering.

Limitaciones
PDF Limitaciones
- Editing is difficult — the format is optimized for display, not mutation.
- Text extraction can scramble reading order in multi-column layouts.
- File sizes balloon quickly when embedding high-resolution images or fonts.
- Accessibility (screen readers) requires careful tagging that many PDFs skip.
- JavaScript support has historically been a malware vector.
RAF Limitaciones
- X-Trans demosaicing is the hardest raw problem to solve cleanly.
- Third-party tools rarely match Fuji's own rendering.
- Proprietary with no official spec.
- GFX RAF files are massive (150+ MB per shot).
