Why convert BMP to JPG?
BMP (bitmap) images are usually uncompressed, so a single screenshot or scan can be many megabytes. JPG compresses photos to a fraction of the size, and PNG compresses screenshots and graphics without any loss. This converter decodes BMP files in your browser and saves them as JPG, PNG or WebP.
How to convert BMP to JPG
- Open or drop your .bmp files.
- Choose JPG for photos, or PNG for screenshots and diagrams.
- Select Convert.
- Download the files or a ZIP.
BMP tips
- Choose PNG for screenshots, text and flat graphics: lossless and still much smaller than BMP.
- Choose JPG for photos.
- BMP with alpha channels is rare; transparent areas get your background colour in JPG.
- Set a maximum size to shrink very large bitmaps further.
