FARBFELD to PALM Converter
Processing entirely on your device — large files may take a moment.
Farbfeld is the suckless lossless image format — a tiny 16-byte header then uncompressed 16-bit RGBA, trivially parseable in any language with zero dependencies. Convert images to PALM bitmaps for retro PDA projects.
iLoveConverter processes everything locally on your computer, which makes it private and fast: no upload wait, no server storage, no limits. Add as many files as you like — batch conversion is built in.

About the FARBFELD format
The Farbfeld Lossless Image coder of the ImageMagick set — the lossless-pixel format is written natively by the magick.wasm engine, entirely in your browser.
Obscure coder formats like this are exactly what template-driven converters list and never actually convert — here it really works.
+Strengths
- ✓Written natively by ImageMagick
- ✓Runs entirely in your browser
- ✓Free, private, no watermarks
!Limitations
- −Niche format — few modern readers
- −Feature subset varies by coder
- −Keep the original for re-editing

Why convert FARBFELD to PALM?
Converting makes sense where the strengths of PALM meet what FARBFELD cannot give you. Written natively by ImageMagick Meanwhile Niche format — few modern readers One pass through the converter above puts your file on the right side of that trade-off.
Frequently asked questions
Is this FARBFELD to PALM converter really free?
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily conversion limits. The site is supported by advertising.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so your files never leave your device — that is what makes it instant and private.
Does it work on Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android?
Yes. Anything with a modern browser works: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS. No software installation is required.
Will I lose quality converting FARBFELD to PALM?
No — PALM is a lossless format, so every pixel of the converted image matches your original FARBFELD file. You can also adjust the quality/size balance before converting when the target format supports compression.
Will transparent areas survive the conversion to PALM?
Transparency is kept whenever PALM actually supports an alpha channel. If the target format has none (like JPG), transparent areas are flattened onto a white background — that is a property of the format, not of this tool.
What happens to EXIF data and other metadata?
Conversions here re-encode the image, and re-encoding generally does not carry the original metadata over. If the EXIF data of your FARBFELD files matters (camera model, GPS, timestamps), keep the original file as the master and treat the converted copy as the shareable version.
