Converting RAW photos to another file format

The RAW file format is read-only and the settings for a RAW file are stored as a separate header. It is these settings that you can adjust in the Camera RAW Lab. However, to use the editing features in the Adjust and Edit workspaces, you need save the RAW file to a different file format, such as JPEG, TIFF, or the native format, .pspimage. To quickly convert the file, you can use Convert RAW.
