Advantages of RAW over ODF
There are strong reasons to convert ODF to RAW:
Industry standard: In many image workflows, RAW Image has become the go-to format, making this conversion a frequent necessity.
API and automation: Many automated workflows and APIs expect RAW Image as input, making this conversion necessary for programmatic processing.
Editing flexibility: RAW Image files can be opened in a wider range of editing software, giving you more options for further modifications.
Collaboration ease: Team members and collaborators are more likely to have software that opens RAW Image natively, reducing compatibility friction.
Smaller file size: Efficient compression in RAW Image often produces significantly smaller files than OpenDocument Formula, saving storage space and bandwidth.
