My bad, Peter. There are a couple of options for reading foreign floating point FITS files (Format Explorer>FITS>Edit Preferences or input hints "low-range" and "upper-range") but no ability to write them yet. A 32-bit integer FITS file would be the best interchange format. As Colin mentioned, a 16-bit integer file would also work if the dynamic range of the data is small enough.

Cheers,
Rick.
