RAW at a glance
RAW
Convert to RAW when a capture-oriented workflow needs source sensor data preserved rather than a baked image.
It is useful as a generic archival or interchange target only where the receiving toolchain explicitly understands the raw variant involved.
NUMBERS at a glance
NUMBERS
Convert to NUMBERS when the recipient is expected to work further in Apple Numbers, especially for schedules, lightweight financial sheets, classroom materials, or visually arranged tables in Mac- and iPad-based workflows.
It is useful when the Apple editing experience matters more than cross-platform ubiquity.
For broad office interoperability, XLSX is usually the safer spreadsheet target.
