No, that's what that data structure is called and it can be used for many things, not just images (e.g., this is often what people on this forum use for their first allocators). It's a contiguous map of bits, where each bit (or group of bits) represents an equal part of the whole, in succession.

To my knowledge, Photoshop is the only program which uses this weird "raw" name in the way that you have, which normally suggests something else to anyone familiar with raw data coming from CCD's. However, it's really uncommon and requires elaboration (i.e., "the Photoshop kind") so I suggest avoiding this meaning altogether.

EDIT: See this section on Wikipedia.

+1 to boobies, raw usually means a slightly more complicated image format.

RAW is usually the data straight from the sensor of the camera, it requires a lot of processing before you can get something to look at.
Exporting an image that has already been processed as a RAW doesn't really make sense, much like going from a 32kbps mp3 to a 1000kbps FLAC.

As I already said, I am aware of the existence of "raw" files in digital photography. However both Photoshop and GIMP use the term "raw" to refer to raw pixel data (a.k.a. "bitmap" in the "array of bits" sense rather than the ".bmp file" sense) rather than raw camera files.

Photoshop RAW exports 24-bit, unless you have non-opaque pixels, then it can export 32-bit. If you need 32-bit raw bitmaps you could export a 32-bit uncompressed TGA, and rip out the headers and footer.

Or leave in the headers and footer, since TGA is an incredibly simple format that was designed to basically encapsulate packed pixel data that could be blitted to a framebuffer.
