Digital Photo Professional’s RAW image development processing technology is continually being improved upon so that you can perform the latest image processing more appropriately.
Meaning that, between two differing versions of Digital Photo Professional , processing results may differ very slightly even if with the same RAW image data, or the results of significant editing of RAW image data with an attached recipe may be different. When you want to save the developing or editing results of the version you are currently using as it is, it is recommended that you convert and save images as JPEG image or TIFF images.
