RAS is a raster image format used on Sun UNIX platforms developed by Sun Microsystems for workstations and server computers. The RAS extension is fairly popular among UNIX users for its simple features and easy accessibility options. RAS files are compatible with several programs designed for image processing and viewing.
PDF (Portable Document Format) is one of the most popular formats used for storing document files which include both text and graphics. As opposed to other formats with a similar function, PDFs can be easily transferred between different applications and different operating systems, and generally don't have a very large size. Moreover, they can offer decent image quality in a compressed format and can be secured with passwords or watermarks.
