Portable Float Map, an uncompressed high-dynamic-range raster image format that stores each pixel as 32-bit floating-point values, in colour (PF) or greyscale (Pf).
This is a file used for creating line plots in the form of vector images. They include text objects, splines, forms, arcs, lines and arrows. It can contain a set of colors, images and sketches. It was initially developed for the Xfig drawing program, but today it’s used in other drawing editors.
