Reverse conversion

PFM at a glance

PFM

Convert to PFM when high-precision floating-point image data must survive for rendering, HDR processing, or technical analysis.

It is useful as a working format in graphics and research pipelines.

HTML at a glance

HTML

Convert to HTML when the output is meant to be read in a browser, indexed by search engines, linked from other pages, or embedded in a web application.

It is a strong target for documentation, knowledge-base content, public reports, landing pages, and long-form articles that need responsive display and hyperlinkable sections.

Use HTML when accessibility, discoverability, and browser delivery matter more than preserving an exact print layout.

It is also useful as an intermediate format for content pipelines that later restyle or templatize the output.
