What is BMF file?
A BMF file (also known as a Binary Material File) is a data file that contains information about textures. The file stores texture information, such as color, brightness and intensity, as well as its projection used in a variety of 3D applications. BMF files are mainly used in Autodesk 3ds Max and related software for character or environmental textures. BMF files are typically found in the Material Libraries tab, which holds all the material and textures formerly used in the 3D scene. [ ⏩ ] BMF file extension
What is PNG file?
The PNG (Portable Network Graphic) file extension is used for a raster-based image format. It is designed to replace the popular .GIF file format, and provide a similar color palette of up to 256 colors. PGN files are made of pixels that when combined form an image. This makes them ideal for simple web graphics, digital art and web comics.

How to convert the file from BMF to PNG?
To successfully convert the BMF file to PNG, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.BMF). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case PNG (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than PNG).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. BMF to PNG. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting BMF files to PNG files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension PNG, while before this step we had the BMF file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new PNG file, or not.
