pfTextures allow specification of internal texture formats which are greater
than 8 bits per component (e.g. PFTEX_I_16). Does anyone know if the
pfTexture::saveFile() function (or the SGI image format for that matter)
supports these higher resolution formats? If I create a 16 bit texture
through code the texture looks fine in my app and saveFile successfully
saves the texture, but it looks like garbage if I try to do an ipaste on the
image, or if I try to load the image as a texture back into my app.
