Good to know

  • The picture is placed in the PS file as a bitmap; it is not turned into vector shapes.
  • RAW files are developed on our server with the camera's own white balance, then saved as PS. Expect a good-looking picture, not a replacement for your RAW editor.
  • Tick Remove metadata in Options to leave out information stored in the picture, such as the camera and the place.

Frequently asked questions

Is converting RAW to PS free?

Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.

Are my RAW pictures uploaded anywhere?

How large can the RAW file be?

Up to 1 GB per file. This conversion runs on our server, which accepts files up to that size.

Can I change the size or quality of the PS?

Yes. Click Options next to the file to set a width and height, choose a quality, remove metadata and more. Only the settings that make sense for RAW to PS are shown.

Can I convert several RAW files at once?
