  Edit povray.ini and add "+fn" there.

In the povray.ini file, add:
+fn to output as PNG. The most common.
+ft for normal TGA.
+fc for compressed TGA using RLE encoding.
+fp for PPM.

You can also use the same on the command line if you need to. For 
example, when generating the image for a hight_field using hf16 option, 
you should add +ft or +fc on the command line.
