When to use this tool
- You need a BMP file because the destination (a website, CMS, app or printer) expects BMP.
- You want uncompressed pixel data that any legacy tool can parse — ideal for legacy Windows software, embedded systems and some scanning pipelines.
- You no longer need PNG's transparency or lossless precision and want a smaller, faster file.
Best for
- Legacy Windows tools
- Embedded systems
- Software that refuses compressed formats
Every image you drop here is processed entirely inside your browser using the standard Canvas and File APIs. Nothing is uploaded, stored or logged on a server — you can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and the tool still works.
Quality & file size notes
- • BMP is lossless — it preserves the source exactly as it currently is. It cannot recover detail a lossy source has already discarded.
- • PNG supports transparency but BMP does not — transparent pixels are flattened onto a solid white background in the output.
Things to watch out for
- — BMP files are huge — often 10–30× larger than JPG. Only use it when a legacy tool requires it.

Why convert PNG to BMP?+
BMP offers uncompressed pixel data that any legacy tool can parse, which makes it ideal for legacy Windows software, embedded systems and some scanning pipelines. PNG on the other hand is supported everywhere — the web default for non-photo images, so converting gives you a file that fits the destination better.
Will I lose quality converting PNG to BMP?+
No — BMP stores the image losslessly. It can't improve on the source, but it won't add any new artefacts either.
Is this PNG to BMP converter really free?+
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no upload limit. The site is supported by lightweight ads so every tool stays free.
Are my PNG files uploaded anywhere?+
Every image you drop here is processed entirely inside your browser using the standard Canvas and File APIs. Nothing is uploaded, stored or logged on a server — you can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and the tool still works.
What happens to my transparent background?+
BMP has no concept of transparency, so transparent pixels are filled with solid white. If you need to keep transparency, convert to PNG or WEBP instead.
