NAME

       pfsinpfm - Load images or frames in PFM format

SYNOPSIS

       pfsinpfm (<file> [--frames <range>] [--skip-missing])  [<file>...]

DESCRIPTION

       Use  this  command  to read frames in PFM format. PFM format is used for HDR Shop plug-ins
       and is also supported by some recent versions of NetPBM  package  (pamtopfm  and  pfmtopam
       commands).  The  frames  are converted to pfs stream and send to the Standard Output. This
       command can handle both color and gray-scale images.

       Details on the format of the pattern file names,  which  are  used  for  reading  multiple
       frames, can be found in the manual page of pfsinppm.

       To automatically recognize a file format from the extension, use pfsin command instead.

EXAMPLES

        pfsin memorial.pfm | pfsout memorial.hdr

              Converts from one HDR format to another

BUGS

       pfsinpfm does not handle images that store floating point numbers using big-endian format.
       pfsoutpfm may also read floating point numbers incorrectly on big-endian machines.
