Imsi Floor Plan 3d

The BMF file format , is an image file format used to store bitmap digital images, specifically clipart, by several legacy Corel applications; notably Corel's Windows 3.1-based Gallery Clipart applications. The BMF file extension is also used by an architecture design program called FloorPlan 3D by IMSI. It was developed by CADSOFT Corporation, and the copyright in 1998 by IMSI shows FloorPlan 3D with a version of 4.10.

However, the Corel format was proprietary and, to our knowledge, has never been released publicly. Consequently, very little information exists about the BMF format. As of 2004, per a conversation with Corel's technical support group, Corel had discontinued support for the BMF format (ie, by dropping support for the Clipart Gallery applications which used that format) and had no further plans to support it any subsequent Corel applications.

Only one conversion program is available as far as we know. That would be Pierre Gougelet's XnView program. We have not tried it but it lists BMF as a format it can open. It will not open the BMF format created by IMSI. Please note that this is NOT a commercial endorsement. We have no connection to this individual nor have we ever used any of his products. We are only reporting this because it is the only current conversion software we are aware of.

BMF file header

This block of bytes is added and serves for identification. A typical application will read this block first to ensure that the file is actually a BMF file. FILExt reports that the file header is Hex: 81 8A.

Color palette

The color palette of the BMF format is known. Likely it is 8-bit color based on the known clipart examples.

Bitmap data

Bitmap data is unknown. The BMF format is proprietary and has not been (to our knowledge) released publicly.

Usage of BMF format

Usage of the BMF format was fairly limited. Only the Corel Clipart Gallery and Corel Flow products were known to have used this format. Neither product nor the format was supported after Windows 95 was released making the format an orphan.

Related formats

None that we are aware of.
