PFM Raw at a glance
PFM Raw
PFM persists from the era when HDR imaging, rendering research, and tone-mapping workflows needed straightforward file carriers for floating-point image data long before mainstream consumer HDR delivery formats matured.
UV Map at a glance
UV Map
UV mapping became foundational once 3D graphics pipelines standardized on the idea of flattening mesh surfaces into 2D texture space for painting, baking, and material assignment.
