    How to convert BMP to JPG

    1. 1Drop your BMP files into the box above, or click Choose images.
    2. 2Pick JPG for the smallest files, or PNG to keep every pixel.
    3. 3Download each image, or all of them as a ZIP file.

    Why BMP files are so big

    BMP is a Windows format from the 1980s that usually stores every pixel with no compression at all. A single photo can easily be 10 to 30 MB. Old scanners, Paint, screenshots from legacy software and some industrial cameras still produce BMPs.

    JPG or PNG?

    • JPG shrinks photos and scans the most, often by 90% or more, with no visible difference at Best quality.
    • PNG is lossless, so it's the right choice for screenshots, diagrams and anything with text, and still much smaller than BMP.
