Convert BMP Files

BMP is an uncompressed raster image format which contains a file header (where the height, width, bitmap identifier or the color options are stored) and differently colored bitmap pixels.

When converting BMP images, users will need to consider that this type of files can feature various levels of color depths per pixel, according to the number of bits per pixel contained in the file header, therefore one can configure many of its settings.

The main reason for exporting BMP files to other formats are that they are large and are not suitable for data transfer over the Internet or over slow types of connections.

PNG or JPEG are more suitable for data exchanges and they will be the preferred destination formats during BMP conversions.
