Why convert BMP to PNG?
- PNG files are usually smaller than BMP for the same picture, so pages load faster and uploads finish sooner.
- PNG is supported far more widely than BMP, so the file is easier to open, share and upload.
- PNG is made for screenshots, logos, text graphics and cut-outs.
What to expect when converting BMP to PNG
- Your original BMP file isn’t changed: you download a new PNG copy.
- The PNG keeps the pixel dimensions of your BMP.
