LOL, we deal with them everywhere, no?
In this case, BF means Bread Flour, which has a higher level of protein than does All Purpose Flour.
Hope that helps. Welcome to baking and to TFL (The Fresh Loaf)!

BF is bread flour.

I used to wonder how in blazes people were baking bread in an automated banking machine!
