&lt;br /&gt;
A World File has&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
  1.000000000000000&lt;br /&gt;
  0.000000000000000&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Line 1:    (A)    X scale in resulting X direction&lt;br /&gt;
Line 2:    (B)    Y scale in resulting X direction&lt;br /&gt;
Line 3:    (C)    X scale in resulting Y direction&lt;br /&gt;
Line 4:    (D)    Y scale in resulting Y direction&lt;br /&gt;
Line 5:    (E)    X coordinate of the center of the center of rotation (the center of the Upper Left Pixel of the unrotated image)&lt;br /&gt;
Line 6:    (F)    Y coordinate of the center of the center of rotation (the center of the Upper Left Pixel of the unrotated image)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
or in algebraic form&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 X&amp;#039; =  (A*X) + (B*Y) + E&lt;br /&gt;
 Y&amp;#039; =  (C*X) + (D*Y) + F&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where X&amp;#039; and Y&amp;#039; are georeferenced coordinates and x is pixel columns and y is pixels rows&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
D is negative because pixel rows increase opposite an increasing northing direction.&lt;br /&gt;
B and C are zero for unrotated and unsheared georeferences A and D are zero for 90 and 270 degree rotations google world file ax + by center for more references&lt;br /&gt;

Anexo I: Formato TFW.&lt;br /&gt;
Un ejemplo de fichero TFW serÃ­a el siguiente:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 1.000000000000000&lt;br /&gt;
  0.000000000000000&lt;br /&gt;
  0.000000000000000&lt;br /&gt;
 -1.000000000000000&lt;br /&gt;
  210326.500000000000000&lt;br /&gt;
 4146551.500000000000000&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
La primera lÃ­nea indica el tamaÃ±o del pixel en la direcciÃ³n X, en metros, de la imÃ¡gen.&lt;br /&gt;
La segunda linea nos indica la coordenada pixel X, de un punto cualquiera de la imÃ¡gen (lo normal la esquina superior izquierda (xmin, ymax).&lt;br /&gt;
La tercera lÃ­nea la coordenada pixel Y del punto de la imÃ¡gen.&lt;br /&gt;
La cuarta lÃ­nea el tamaÃ±o del pixel en la direcciÃ³n Y, en metros de la imÃ¡gen. Un valor negativo indica que el punto de coordenada Ypixel = 0 es el punto que tiene un valor de coordenada Y real mayor.&lt;br /&gt;
La quinta linea nos da la coordenada X real del punto utilizado para georreferenciar la imÃ¡gen.&lt;br /&gt;
La sexta lÃ­nea la coordenada Y real del citado punto.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;hr&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Ole Rahn adds:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just one thing:&lt;br /&gt;
As far as I know (I was corrected by a user myself) the world file extension consists of the following parts:&lt;br /&gt;
 [dot] [1st letter of the image&amp;#039;s extension] [last letter of the image&amp;#039;s extension] [w]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
... so for a PNG it should be: &amp;quot;.pgw&amp;quot; (not &amp;quot;.pngw&amp;quot;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A good explanation in english can also be found at: http://www.feflow.info/html/help/general/file_format.html#tfw_file&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
