Junfeng, your mail was replied to Nov 11, the same day you requested the info, I assume it may have ended up in a spam folder, it was resent now. The CLF format is based on an input text format that when validated is saved as a binary distribution format, the reason it is not only a text format is to ensure data integrity and traceability. The distribution format is signed by the CLF author (typically the person/company that performed the measurement or the manufacturer) which means that anyone viewing a CLF distribution-file via the free viewer, and has a question about the data, can contact the author. The format also includes a way of adding special documentation as an embedded PDF-file. To avoid that data is directly created as binary, bypassing all validity checks, the binary format it is not made public on the web-site but anyone with a valid use (like here) can request the specification as indicated on the web-site. There are no costs involved in becoming an author or to receive the binary specification.
