About the PICON format
PICON — Personal Icon
PICON is a face image database format used to associate small portrait images with email addresses. The PICON (Personal Icons) project created a large database of 48×48 pixel XPM-format face images keyed to internet email domains, used by some email clients.
Common uses
- Personal icon face image databases
- Legacy email client avatar images
- Converting PICON face images to modern formats
- Historical internet identity image archives
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
