About formats

LRF is the file format associated with Sony's BBeB (Broadband eBook) specification, jointly developed by Sony and Canon and introduced in 2004 with the Sony Librie EBR-1000EP — the world's first commercial E Ink e-reader. The format supports both reflowable text and fixed-layout page rendering, embedding fonts, images, vector graphics, and metadata within a compact binary container. LRF files use a block-based internal structure with object trees describing page layouts, text streams, image resources, and table of contents navigation. Sony's Reader devices and the companion desktop software (Sony Reader Library) served as the primary ecosystem for LRF content throughout the mid-2000s. A key advantage was its early adoption of high-quality font embedding and text rendering optimized specifically for E Ink displays, delivering a reading experience noticeably superior to many competing formats of the era. The format also supported bookmark synchronization, dictionary lookups, and annotations within the Sony Reader ecosystem. However, Sony officially discontinued BBeB/LRF support in 2010, migrating its Reader platform to the industry-standard EPUB format. Today LRF files are primarily encountered in personal ebook collections from that period and can be converted to modern formats using tools like Calibre. The format remains a historically significant milestone as the native format of the device category that launched the modern e-reader revolution.

PSD (Photoshop Document) is the native file format of Adobe Photoshop, the industry-standard raster image editor first released on February 19, 1990. PSD files preserve the complete editing state of a Photoshop project: all layers (raster, text, adjustment, shape, and smart object layers) with their positions, blending modes, opacity, and layer effects; layer masks and vector masks; alpha channels; spot color channels; paths; guides; slices; and the full undo history. The format supports images up to 30,000 x 30,000 pixels (PSB, the large document format, extends this to 300,000 x 300,000) in color modes including RGB, CMYK, Lab, Grayscale, Indexed, Duotone, and Multichannel, at 1, 8, 16, or 32 bits per channel. PSD files use a combination of RLE compression for individual layer data and store composite (flattened) preview images for quick display by applications that cannot parse the full layer structure. The format has become a de facto standard for professional creative workflows far beyond Photoshop itself — photographers, graphic designers, web developers, and video post-production artists exchange PSD files as the working format that preserves creative flexibility. One advantage is the non-destructive editing model: PSD preserves every layer, mask, adjustment, and effect as independently editable elements, allowing creative decisions to be revised at any point without starting over. The format's role as the interchange standard for the creative industry provides another core strength — PSD files can be opened by Adobe Illustrator, InDesign, After Effects, Premiere Pro, as well as Affinity Photo, GIMP, Sketch, Figma, and Photopea, making it the lingua franca of visual design.
