HEIC to BMP
Create uncompressed BMP files for older software and hardware that does not accept modern formats.
About this format
When to choose BMP
BMP stores every pixel without compression, so files are large but very simple for old software, embedded devices and certain industrial tools to read. Files are saved as standard 24-bit colour. A 12-megapixel photo is about 36 MB.
Questions
HEIC to BMP, answered.
Why are BMP files so large?
BMP stores three bytes for every pixel with no compression, so size grows directly with resolution. Use “Max size” if you need smaller files.
What kind of BMP does this create?
A standard uncompressed 24-bit RGB BMP, the most widely supported variant.
Does BMP support transparency?
Not in this output. Any transparent areas are placed on a white background.
Should I use BMP for sharing photos?
Usually not. JPG files are far smaller and open everywhere. Choose BMP when a program specifically requires it.
