Frequently asked questions

Why would legacy software need BMP instead of AVIF?

AVIF is too new for most older Windows applications, printers and industrial systems, which often only accept the basic, uncompressed BMP format. This conversion lets that software open a modern AVIF image.

Will the BMP be much larger than the AVIF?

Yes, dramatically. AVIF is one of the most efficient formats available, while BMP stores every pixel uncompressed, so a 12-megapixel image becomes roughly 36 MB — many times larger than the AVIF.

Is the AVIF's transparency kept in the BMP?

No. Standard BMP has no alpha channel, so a transparent AVIF background is filled with a solid colour, usually white. Use AVIF to PNG instead if you need to keep transparency.

What colour depth does the BMP use?

The image is saved as a standard 24-bit RGB bitmap, which reproduces the colours faithfully and matches the depth the legacy software that requires BMP expects.

What happens if the AVIF is animated?

BMP is a single still image, so only the first frame is saved. The animation is not preserved in a BMP — export it as WebP or a video if you need to keep the motion.

Is there a better format if BMP is not strictly required?

Yes. PNG or JPG open in almost everything at a fraction of the size, so only use BMP when the target program specifically demands the uncompressed bitmap format. Saving an unnecessary BMP just wastes disk space and upload time for no visual benefit.

Can I convert several AVIF files to BMP at once?

Yes. Add all the AVIF files you need and each is converted to its own BMP in a single pass, which saves time when feeding a batch into older software.
