Frequently Asked Questions
Is PNG conversion truly lossless from BMP?
Yes, PNG lossless compression preserves every pixel identically. The image will look exactly the same but the file will be much smaller.
How much smaller will my BMP become as PNG?
PNG files are typically 50-80% smaller than equivalent BMP files, depending on image content. Images with large areas of solid color compress extremely well.
Should I use PNG or JPG for my BMP files?
Use PNG for screenshots, graphics, and images with text. Use JPG for photographs where smaller file size is more important than pixel-perfect quality.
