BMP to JPG

About BMP to JPG

BMP to JPG is a free online tool. Turn BMP bitmap images into compressed JPG photos. It runs entirely in your browser, so there is nothing to install, no account to create and no watermark added to your result.

Why convert BMP to JPG? BMP is an old, uncompressed bitmap format that creates very large files and is rarely needed outside legacy software. JPG is a lossy format with very small files and universal support, which makes it ideal for photos but unsuitable for transparency.

How to use BMP to JPG

1. Click the upload area or drag your BMP image onto it.
2. Press the convert button and wait a moment while your browser processes the file.
3. Preview the result and download your JPG file.

Worked example

Upload a BMP file, press convert and you get a JPG copy. Your original file is not changed, so you can always go back to it.

Tips for best results

• Transparent areas become a solid background when saving as JPG, so check the result if your image had transparency.
• Everything runs in your browser, so you can use BMP to JPG even on a slow connection once the page has loaded.

Limits to keep in mind

• Files are processed in your browser, so very large files depend on your device memory and may be slow. The limit is 50 MB per file.
• Animated images keep only their first frame. JPG output cannot keep transparency, and lossy formats discard a small amount of detail.
