Understanding BMP Format
The BMP (Bitmap) image file format is a raster graphics image file format used to store bitmap digital images, independently of the display device. Key characteristics include:
- Uncompressed (Typically): Most commonly, BMP files are uncompressed, meaning they store raw pixel data. This results in larger file sizes compared to formats like JPG or PNG but ensures no quality loss from compression.
- Color Depths: BMP supports various color depths, but 24-bit (16.7 million colors) is very common for true color images. Our tool outputs 24-bit BMPs.
- Wide Compatibility (Historically): BMP was one of the first widely adopted raster graphics formats on Windows.
- Simple Structure: The file structure is relatively straightforward, making it easier to read and write programmatically compared to more complex compressed formats.
Converting JPG to BMP essentially "unpacks" the compressed JPG data into its raw pixel form, which usually results in a significantly larger file.
Key Features
Conversion Process
- • **Batch JPG to BMP:** Convert multiple JPG files at once.
- • **24-bit Output:** Creates standard 24-bit RGB BMP files.
- • **Resizing Option:** Change image dimensions before converting to BMP.
User Experience
- • **Filename Customization:** Add prefixes or suffixes to output BMP files.
- • **Download Options:** Download individually or as a ZIP archive.
- • **Client-Side Conversion:** All processing is done in your browser for privacy and speed.
How to Convert JPG to BMP
- Upload JPG Files: Drag and drop your JPG/JPEG images, or click to select files.
- Adjust Settings (Optional):
- **Resize:** If needed, enable resizing and set new dimensions or a percentage.
- **Naming:** Add a prefix or suffix for the output BMP filenames.
- Convert: Click the "Convert JPGs to BMP" button.
- Download: Download your converted BMP files. Note that BMP files will likely be much larger than your original JPGs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my BMP file so much larger than the JPG?
JPG uses "lossy" compression to significantly reduce file size by discarding some image data. BMP, in its common 24-bit form, is uncompressed. It stores every pixel's color information directly, leading to much larger files but no compression artifacts.
Does converting JPG to BMP improve image quality?
No. Converting a JPG to BMP will not restore any quality lost during the original JPG compression. The BMP will faithfully represent the pixels of the source JPG, including any existing compression artifacts. The main reason to convert to BMP is usually for compatibility or to have an uncompressed version of the *current* image data.
What color depth are the output BMPs?
This tool generates 24-bit RGB BMP files, which support up to 16.7 million colors and do not include an alpha (transparency) channel.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No, all conversions are performed in your browser. Your files are not sent to any server.
