DRF to PDF

Format Overview & Applications
A service report may need a fixed copy of a Kodak Pro SLR/n image; the PDF is convenient for that report, while the DRF remains the developable source.
Technical Specifications & Codec Breakdown
The DRF uses the shared LibRaw settings—camera white balance and matrix, AHD demosaic, automatic orientation and 8-bit sRGB output—before PDF creation.
OS & Browser Compatibility
A raw-compatible Kodak application can work with the DRF; service staff can read the resulting page using standard document tools.
Useful info
If the report needs a fixed print layout, place the developed image in a page-layout tool first; the converter sizes a one-page PDF directly from pixels at 150 dpi.
Format Comparison & Technical Specifications
A 3008×2000 Kodak Pro SLR/n DRF service-report image occupies 20.1×13.3 inches.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the PDF be the only copy of a DRF service photo?
Keep the DRF when future raw adjustment matters; this output is a rendered page without raw controls.
Does the path use a Kodak-specific lookup table?
The visible code configures LibRaw’s camera white balance and camera matrix but does not expose a separate lookup-table control.
What should accompany a Kodak service-report page?
Keep the DRF with the report if a different raw rendering may be requested.
