EPS to RAF Converter
Convert EPS to RAF in your browser. You download a Linear DNG (.dng), not a .raf: only a Fujifilm camera can create a genuine RAF, and every editor that opens RAF also opens DNG. Nothing is uploaded.

Why use Aback Images for eps to raf
Where a RAF would go
RAF files are opened by Fujifilm X RAW Studio, Lightroom, Photoshop Camera Raw, Capture One and darktable, and every one of them opens the DNG too.
DNG next to EPS
The DNG is built from the preview stored in the EPS, so its size follows that preview's resolution rather than the complexity of the artwork.
Written without a lossy pass
The DNG is written uncompressed, so the pixels decoded from the EPS arrive unchanged.
Processed on your device
Your images are decoded, edited and encoded inside this browser tab by Web Workers. Nothing is uploaded to a server.
EPS vs RAF
What changes from EPS to RAF
Encoding: the EPS uses PostScript program text, with an optional binary TIFF preview or an EPSI hex preview; RAF uses uncompressed or lossless compressed sensor data in Fujifilm's own container, and the download is a Linear DNG: demosaiced 8-bit RGB with the colour matrices raw editors need.
Bit depth: resolution-independent artwork, with previews usually 8-bit in the EPS; RAF allows 12 to 16 bits per channel depending on the camera, and the DNG written here has 8 bits per channel, linearised.
Colour: CMYK, RGB and spot colours in the EPS; RAF supports camera RGB from an X-Trans 6×6 or Bayer 2×2 mosaic, written here as 8-bit sRGB.
Metadata: the EPS can carry DSC comments such as %%BoundingBox, %%Creator and %%Title; RAF can carry EXIF and Fujifilm maker notes, including the Film Simulation, but nothing is copied across.
About EPS
EPS is a PostScript drawing packaged for placing inside other documents. It was the exchange format of print and logo design for decades; most EPS files also carry a raster preview so layout software can show them.
An EPS is a PostScript program with DSC comments ('%!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0', %%BoundingBox). Files from Illustrator, Photoshop and CorelDRAW usually start with a 30-byte binary header (C5 D0 D3 C6) that points to a TIFF preview; others carry an EPSI hex preview between %%BeginPreview and %%EndPreview.
EPS files usually come from Illustrator, CorelDRAW, InDesign, TeX figures and stock vector libraries.
About RAF
RAF is the raw format of Fujifilm cameras, from the X series to the medium-format GFX. Most X-series bodies use an X-Trans sensor with a 6×6 colour filter pattern instead of the usual Bayer 2×2.
RAF is not TIFF at the top level: it opens with the text 'FUJIFILMCCD-RAW', then a header with the camera model and offsets to three blocks: a JPEG preview near the start of the file, a header describing the sensor layout, and the sensor data.
RAF files come from Fujifilm X-T, X-H, X-S, X-E, X100 and GFX cameras.
When converting EPS to RAF makes sense
Forms and workflows that ask for RAF usually feed a raw editor, and each of those opens DNG as well, so the DNG can take the RAF's place. Keep the EPS if you only need to view or share the picture.
What RAF offers when it comes straight from the camera: Film Simulation baked into the embedded JPEG; Lossless compressed option on recent bodies; Large medium-format files from GFX cameras. Its drawbacks: Fujifilm's own container rather than TIFF; X-Trans demosaicing differs between raw editors; Film Simulations need camera-matching profiles in third-party editors.
Limitations
- The preview image stored inside the EPS is converted, not the vector artwork, so the output resolution is whatever the preview was saved at, often screen resolution. Raster EPS files, an image wrapped in PostScript, are read at full resolution.
- An EPS with no embedded preview (Inkscape's default and hand-written PostScript, for example) cannot be converted here, because a browser cannot run PostScript.
- The DNG holds the decoded 8-bit pixels, so it adds no dynamic range or detail beyond the EPS.

Frequently asked questions
Why do I get a .dng file instead of a .raf?
A real RAF is written by Fujifilm cameras and holds the sensor's own readings (12 to 16 bits per channel depending on the camera, stored as uncompressed or lossless compressed sensor data in Fujifilm's own container) along with EXIF and Fujifilm maker notes, including the Film Simulation. An EPS holds no sensor data, so no software outside the camera can create a genuine RAF. The Linear DNG you get instead is Adobe's open raw format, and every editor that opens RAF files opens it with the same raw controls. It holds decoded pixels, so it adds no quality or dynamic range.
Does converting EPS to RAF lose quality?
DNG is written uncompressed, so the pixels are stored exactly as decoded.
Does this render the vector artwork in the EPS?
No. Browsers cannot run PostScript, so the converter uses the preview image that Illustrator, Photoshop, CorelDRAW and similar apps save inside the EPS, which is usually screen resolution. An EPS that simply wraps a raster image is read at full resolution. For full-resolution vector artwork, export from the original design app, or render the EPS with Ghostscript or Inkscape.
Are my images uploaded anywhere?
No. Processing happens inside your browser with WebAssembly and Web Workers. The site only downloads the app code and codecs; your files never leave your device. You can confirm this with the live upload counter on the tool, or in your browser's network panel.
Can I process many files at once?
Yes. Drop a whole selection or folder. Files are processed in parallel on several worker threads, each result can be downloaded on its own, and everything can be saved as one ZIP.
Is it free? Is there a file limit or watermark?
It is free with no account, no watermark and no daily limit. The only limit is your device's memory: very large images (over roughly 100 megapixels) may be refused to keep the tab from crashing.
