Transform your PNG files into BMP format instantly within your browser.
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a lossless raster format released in the mid-1990s as a royalty-free successor to GIF, after a licensing dispute over the LZW compression algorithm. It compresses images with the DEFLATE algorithm, the same method used by ZIP archives, so every pixel is preserved exactly with no generation loss on repeated saves. PNG also supports a full 8-bit alpha channel for smooth, partial transparency, unlike GIF's binary on/off transparency. These properties make it the standard choice for screenshots, logos, icons, and any graphic with sharp edges, flat colors, or text that needs to stay perfectly crisp.
BMP (Bitmap, also called Device Independent Bitmap) is a raster format created by Microsoft for early versions of Windows around 1990. Most BMP files store pixel data with little to no compression, so file sizes scale directly with image dimensions and color depth rather than actual visual complexity. This simplicity made BMP easy for any program to read and write reliably, but it also means a BMP is often 5-10 times larger than an equivalent JPG or PNG. It's still occasionally produced by legacy Windows tools, screenshot utilities, and some scientific or industrial imaging software that prioritize a simple, uncompressed structure.
