The RAW format is one of the most powerful formats for professional photographers (now made available to even us novices!). Much like with real film where you first developed the photographs just right in the lab, RAW photos can’t be digitally developed to your exact specifications (without getting chemicals on your hands).

This how-to article will show you how easy and pain free it is to perfectly develop your RAW images in just a few simple steps using Contenta Converter PREMIUM.  The RAW format goes by many brand specific variations such as RAW, DNG, CRW, CR2, ORF, MRW, THM, NEF, PEF, SRF, ARW, 3FR, ERF, KDC, SR2, RAF, X3F, DCR, DRF, MEF, MOS, PTX.

Your photos will automatically be optimised for Internet and will be uploaded at our server for a period of one week. A web photo gallery will be generated and your friends will be able to view or download all your photos very easily.
• Order prints: using the same technology than for sharing photos, we make it easy for you to order prints, posters of any size, mugs, puzzles, playing cards based on your favorite photos at our partner Digibug. Just click a button and it’s soon finished.

We are happy to announce the release of the version 4.3 which brings many improvments:

• Handling of very large SID or JPEG2000 files. When a decompressed image is too large to fit in memory, the will be divided into squares and a sequence of images will be generated. Now you can use Contenta Converter with very large aerial photographies.
• Improvment in the handling of Multipage TIFF (MTIFF). You can now convert a multipage PDF document into a multipage TIFF.
• Two new languages: Arabic and Italian are now supported.
• Many bugs fixes to increase speed and reliability of the program.
