How to convert BMP to PNG
Drop your BMP files into the box at the top of the page, or click it to browse your files. The converter makes a copy of each one in PNG format, and you can download them one by one or all at once. You can convert up to 4 images a day for free, up to 8 MB each. Pro removes the daily limit, lets you convert up to 30 images at a time, and accepts images up to 30 MB.
You can also resize your images and strip out metadata like EXIF data and GPS location while you convert. We store your images for an hour before we permanently delete them.
Converting BMP to PNG
BMP is typically used for old Windows software and simple pipelines that need raw, uncompressed pixels, while PNG is used for logos, screenshots and graphics with transparent areas, where sharp edges matter.
What changes when I convert BMP to PNG?
PNG does not compress away any detail, so the picture itself stays the same as the BMP original.
Understanding BMP
BMP is an uncompressed bitmap format from Windows. It stores every pixel as it is, so files are very large, but almost any program can open them.
Understanding PNG
PNG compresses images without losing any detail, and it supports full transparency. Files are larger than JPEG for photos, but edges and text stay sharp.
Once your images are converted, the colour converter can help you translate any hex, RGB or CMYK values you're working with into whichever format your design tools need next.
