Linear DNG

toDNG converts files to linear DNG form. Linear DNG is also commonly known as "linear raw" format.

While both Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom will read linear DNG files, not all software can read the linear DNG format - many applications can read only DNG files in the exact format produced by the cameras that they support - e.g., Apple Aperture.

To check compatibility with your software, you can use the file attached below, which is a DNG version of the toDNG icon.
