RAF does not support alpha transparency. Transparent XCF areas must be flattened onto a background color.
Animated, sequence, or multipage inputs need explicit frame/page handling.
Converting XCF to RAF decodes the source image and writes a RAF output. Use this route when RAF is a better fit for compatibility, file size, editing, or delivery.
Quality behavior depends on RAF compression: depends.
Choose conversion targets based on RAF compression, transparency, animation, metadata, and compatibility requirements.
Known metadata support: layers, channels, paths, parasites.
Raw converter support depends on camera model and sensor pattern support.
