RAW without filmsim + JPEG with filmsim???

Of course Vincent. When you shoot RAW it is simply that - there are no film sims or any other info included such as white balance etc . So your RAW file will be "untainted" and you can add the film sims or not at your processing stage. Which leaves you to use whatever film sim you want for the JPG file, but that will be "burnt in" as well as white balance etc.

RAW file is a structured database which store some metadata in its fields. One of the field contains the name of the film sim. put there by the Fujifilm camera. When you open RAW file in let say Capture One it applies its own preset of this film sim. to the image you see on the screen. Don't know whether LR does the same or not but anyway LR paints the image accordingly to some algorithm.
So, what's bothered you in all this backstage bussines?
