To convert RAW files to TIFF in Adobe Photoshop, you can follow these steps:
1. Open Adobe Photoshop on your computer.
2. In the Photoshop workspace, go to File and click on Open. Locate the folder where your RAW images are stored and select the file you want to convert. Keep in mind that Adobe Camera Raw opens RAW images by default.
3. The selected RAW image will open in Adobe Camera Raw, where you can make any necessary adjustments to the image, such as exposure, white balance, contrast, or sharpness. This step is optional but can be useful in enhancing the image before converting it.
4. Once you are satisfied with the adjustments, click on the Save Image button located at the bottom right corner of the Adobe Camera Raw window.
5. A dialog box will appear, allowing you to choose the file format and destination for the saved image. In the Format dropdown menu, select TIFF (Tagged Image File Format).
6. Choose the location where you want to save the converted TIFF file by selecting the appropriate folder or creating a new one.
7. Optionally, you can rename the file if desired by entering a new name in the File Name field.
8. Adjust any additional settings, such as color space or bit depth, if necessary. By default, Adobe Camera Raw will preserve the original color space and bit depth of the RAW file.
9. Once you have made all the desired selections, click on the Save button to initiate the conversion process.
10. Adobe Camera Raw will convert the RAW file to TIFF format and save it to the specified location. You can now access the converted TIFF file and use it as needed.
It’s worth noting that Adobe Camera Raw is a powerful tool for processing RAW images, and it offers a wide range of adjustments and options to enhance the image quality before converting it to TIFF or any other file format. Additionally, this process can be applied to multiple RAW images by selecting and opening them simultaneously in Adobe Camera Raw.
