Going the other way? Convert BMP to JPEG instead, or use the full image converter for every format.

How to convert JPEG to BMP

Drop your JPEG 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 BMP format, and you can download them one by one or all at once. You can convert up to 30 images at a time, with a maximum file size of 8 MB each.

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 JPEG to BMP

JPEG is typically used for photographs, where small files and universal support matter more than perfect detail, while BMP is used for old Windows software and simple pipelines that need raw, uncompressed pixels.

What changes when I convert JPEG to BMP?

JPEG has already lost some detail to compression. Converting to BMP keeps what is there but cannot bring that detail back, and the file is usually larger.

Understanding JPEG

JPEG is the most widely supported photo format. It uses lossy compression to keep photos small, and it has no transparency.

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.

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.
