BMP to JPG Converter

How to Convert BMP to JPG

1. Add your BMP files. Drag them into the box or click the button.
2. Choose JPG, PNG or BMP. Use the Convert to menu to pick the output.
3. Download. Save your files one by one or as a ZIP.

Why Convert BMP Files?

BMP (bitmap) is one of the oldest image formats. It came with early versions of Windows. A BMP file stores every pixel with no compression at all. The image looks fine, but the file is enormous.

A 1920 × 1080 BMP is about 6 MB. The same image as a JPG is often under 500 KB. That's 12 times smaller.

Convert BMP to JPG or PNG when you need to:

• Email or upload the image
• Use it on a website
• Save disk space
• Open it on a phone

BMP to JPG or BMP to PNG?

Both are far smaller than BMP. PNG keeps every pixel exactly. JPG gives the smallest size.

Convert JPG or PNG to BMP

Some older software, embedded devices and printers only accept bitmap files. This tool can create them too. Pick BMP from the Convert to menu, then add your JPG or PNG files.

The tool saves standard 24-bit BMP files. These open in Paint, older Windows programs and most hardware that needs bitmaps. BMP doesn't support transparency, so clear areas turn white.

What Does BMP Stand For?

BMP is short for "bitmap". A bitmap is a grid of pixels, where each pixel has its own color value. Strictly speaking, JPG and PNG are bitmaps too. But "BMP" usually means the uncompressed Windows .bmp file type.
