Why convert BMP to JPG?
BMP is an uncompressed raster format from early Windows. It preserves every pixel but produces very large files, so it is mainly used for compatibility with legacy software. JPG (JPEG) uses lossy compression to make small files, which is why it is the default for photographs across the web. It does not support transparency.
- JPG compression makes the image far smaller than BMP; use the quality slider to balance size against sharpness.
- Produce a small, universally compatible JPG that is ideal for photos and email attachments.
- Replace the bulky, uncompressed BMP with a much smaller JPG file at the same visual quality.

Frequently asked questions
Is the BMP to JPG converter free?
Yes. ConvertPix is completely free with no limits on the number of conversions, no watermarks, and no account required.
Are my BMP images uploaded to a server?
No. Conversion happens entirely inside your web browser using your own device. Your images are never uploaded, stored, or seen by anyone.
Will I lose quality converting BMP to JPG?
JPG uses lossy compression. At the default quality the difference is hard to notice; lower the slider for smaller files or raise it for maximum fidelity.
Does JPG support transparency?
No, JPG does not support transparency. Transparent pixels are filled with a solid background colour during conversion.
What is the largest file I can convert?
You can convert BMP images up to 5 MB. Because processing is done on your device, very large images depend on your device's available memory.
