What file formats do you support?

We support over 100 file formats including images (JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, TIFF), documents (PDF, DOC, DOCX, TXT), videos (MP4, AVI, MOV), audio (MP3, WAV, FLAC), and many more specialized formats.

Yes, absolutely. We use enterprise-grade encryption for all file transfers. Your files are automatically deleted from our servers after conversion, and we never store or access your personal data.

What is the maximum file size?

The maximum file size for free users is 100MB per file. Premium users can convert files up to 1GB. For larger files, we recommend our batch processing feature.

How long does conversion take?

Most files convert in under 30 seconds. The exact time depends on file size and format complexity. Our advanced algorithms ensure the fastest possible conversion while maintaining quality.

Can I convert multiple files at once?

Yes! Our batch processing feature allows you to upload and convert up to 50 files simultaneously. This is perfect for bulk conversions and saves significant time.

Do I need to create an account?

No account is required for basic conversions. However, creating a free account gives you access to batch processing, file history, and priority support.

Why Choose Our Converter?

Reliable AVIF to PFM conversion for archival quality and compatibility across editing pipelines

Preserve Linear Color

Export AVIF's decoded linear or scene-referred color into PFM's high-precision floating format for editing.

Fast Local Processing

Conversion runs client-side in the browser to avoid upload delays and speed up batch workflows.

Client-Side Privacy

Files are transformed in memory; media does not need to be uploaded to remote servers.

Editing & Print Ready

PFM outputs are widely supported by high-end RAW processors and compositing tools for further work.

High Bit-Depth Output

Convert to 32-bit floating PFM to retain extended dynamic range beyond typical 8/16-bit formats.

Batch-Friendly

Process dozens of AVIF frames in groups, maintaining per-image performance and predictable memory use.

Tips and Best Practices

Optimize your conversion workflow with technical recommendations.

Prepare AVIF Source

Verify AVIF contains a real alpha plane if you need RGBA in PFM; some AVIFs use premultiplied transparency variants
Check AVIF color primaries and transfer function so downstream grading expects the correct linear/gamma interpretation
If AVIF is animated, extract the intended frame prior to converting to avoid unintended single-frame PFM exports
Inspect AVIF encoder settings for chroma subsampling; heavy subsampling can leave visible color degradation in PFM floats
Validate source dimensions and orientation tags because PFM does not include EXIF orientation metadata

Target PFM Usage

Use PFM as an intermediate for high-dynamic-range compositing and avoid recompressing back to lossy formats
Expect larger PFM sizes; allocate storage and transfer budgets before batch exports
Open PFM in float-capable editors (e.g., HDR compositors) to preserve the expanded numeric precision
When preserving alpha, confirm consumer tool channel order (RGBA versus ARGB) to avoid transparency misinterpretation
If archival with metadata is required, bundle original AVIF with PFM or use a sidecar file for ICC/EXIF preservation

Workflow Integration

Convert AVIF to PFM as a pre-step for converting to EXR or TIFF when handing off to VFX or print pipelines
Test a single-file conversion and verify histograms to ensure decoded dynamic range meets grading expectations
Integrate batch groups of 20–50 AVIFs to balance memory use and throughput in browser-based processing
Use PFM outputs with tools that support float data to prevent inadvertent downcasting to 8/16-bit representations
Document which AVIF encoder profile produced the source if you need to reproduce decode behavior later

Verification & Safety

Confirm pixel integrity by comparing decoded AVIF preview with resulting PFM at 1:1 zoom for artifacts
Do not assume ICC or EXIF transferred—explicitly check sidecar metadata or keep originals for forensic needs
Close nonessential browser tabs and monitor memory use during large batch conversions to avoid browser crashes
If legal retention requires original encoding details, archive the original AVIF alongside the PFM export
Download converted packages promptly and checksum them if long-term storage or transfer integrity is required

Fast Processing

Close unused tabs for maximum throughput.

Client-Side Privacy

No media leaves your device.

Broad Compatibility

Output files work across all operating systems.

Pro Tip

For batch conversions, process in groups of 20-50 files to optimize memory usage and avoid browser slowdowns.
