POTM at a glance

POTM

POTM became common during Office XML-era template modernization and remains standard in enterprise branding workflows.

DRF at a glance

DRF

Digital photography fragmented into many manufacturer-specific raw formats because camera makers optimized for their own sensors, metadata, and software ecosystems rather than for one shared public raw standard.
