NAME

       pfsoutpfm - Write images or frames in OpenEXR format

SYNOPSIS

       pfsoutpfm (<file> [--frames <range>])  [<file>...]

DESCRIPTION

       Use  this command to write 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). Source pfs frames
       should be piped to the Standard Input. This  command  can  handle  both
       color (XYZ channels) and grayscale (Y channel) images.

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

EXAMPLES

        pfsin memorial.hdr | pfsoutpfm memorial.pfm

              Converts from one HDR format to another

        pfsin memorial.hdr | pfsextractchannels Y | pfsoutpfm memorial.pfm

              Stores memorial image as a grayscale PFM file.
