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.
