Hei,

i have a user of Dioptas who has a lot of .f2d files. Do you plan to implement reading of the "Fit2d" file format into fabio?

Hi Clemens,

How are you ?

I could not find any specifications online for the .f2d file format, but since you are close to hammersley, maybe you can get it from him.

I can investigate a bit ...
Do you know what is in those files ? do you have some examples of the same data saved in this format + another format which is already supported by FabIO ?
This is to establish a unit-test and help development.

Cheers,

Hei Jérôme,
I converted the 2 images in the test folder into f2d files, please find them attached. I have really no idea about the structure of the file and I could not find a specification in the Fit2d manual.

Best wishes,

Hi Clemens,

Apparently you used a "newer" version of fit2d which saves data by pages of 512. Elder versions apparently read pages of 2k but using only 512bytes of the 2k (this was probably a bug).
