About the BMP format
BMP — Bitmap Image File
BMP is an uncompressed raster image format native to Windows. It stores color data for each pixel individually without any compression, resulting in very large file sizes but perfect image fidelity.
Common uses
- Windows system graphics
- Intermediate file format for editing
- Print-ready artwork
- Legacy applications
About the PFM format
PFM — Portable Float Map
PFM is an extension of the Netpbm format that stores floating-point pixel values instead of integers. This makes it ideal for high dynamic range (HDR) image storage, scientific imaging, and rendering output where pixel values can exceed the 0–1 range.
Common uses
- HDR image storage and processing
- Computer graphics rendering output
- Scientific image data with floating-point values
- Tone mapping pipeline input/output
