PFM Raw at a glance

PFM Raw

Convert to PFM raw when HDR rendering, tone-mapping, or scientific-imaging workflows need floating-point pixel values to survive intact between tools.

It is especially useful as an intermediate format for graphics research, physically based rendering, and analytical image-processing pipelines that operate on scene-referred data.

EPUB at a glance

EPUB

Convert to EPUB when you need a flexible, reflowable ebook for wide distribution, library use, independent publishing, or archival storage of structured long-form text.

It is the right target for novels, manuals, educational content, and narrative works intended for multiple reading apps and devices.

Choose EPUB when portability and reader adaptability matter more than exact fixed-page layout.
