File extension 8bf is used for plugin files for Adobe compatible applications.
A plug-in is a computer program that interacts with a host application (a web browser or an email client, for example) to provide a certain, usually very specific, function "on demand".
Applications support plugins for many reasons. Some of the main reasons include: enabling third-party developers to create capabilities to extend an application, to support features yet unforeseen, to reduce the size of an application, and to separate source code from an application because of incompatible software licenses.
You can import these plug-in to certain Adobe applications.
It does not seem to be possible to convert .8bf files to anything else.
