PFM file format information

Extension	PFM
Full Name	Portable float map
Type	Image
Mime Type	application/octet-stream
Format	Binary

The PFM (Portable Float Map) file format is an image file format used to store raster images in a simple binary format. Their simple format has made PFM an ideal format for tasks requiring high-precision storage of pixel data; however, due to the uncompressed nature of the format, PFM files can become very large at higher resolutions.

The format stores image pixel data using floating point numbers rather than byte range numbers (i.e. 0-255) found in most other image formats and does not use any compression, meaning there is no loss in quality when saving an image in the PFM format.

PFM files are a legacy file format that can be opened with certain image editing applications that still support this format; alternatively, we have a set of PFM image conversion tools designed to convert PFM files to other, more modern formats, such as PNG.
