How to convert JPX to BMP
- Add your .JPX file - drop it in the box above or click to browse.
- Convert it to .BMP in a few seconds.
- Download your new .BMP file.
What to expect
- Once decoded to BMP the image is uncompressed, so expect a large file.
- JPX-specific features - multiple layers, compositing, and extended colour spaces - are flattened to a single plain bitmap.
- BMP typically carries no transparency, so any alpha in the source is not preserved.
Frequently asked questions
How good is the image quality after converting JPX to BMP?
The visible pixels are reproduced faithfully. JPX's wavelet compression is decoded and written out as uncompressed BMP pixels, so no further compression loss is introduced by this step.
Why convert JPX to BMP?
JPX (JPEG 2000 Part 2) is displayed by almost no browser except Safari and often needs a plugin, whereas BMP opens in every major OS and image viewer with no extra software.
Will the BMP be much larger than the JPX?
Yes. BMP stores pixels uncompressed while JPX is heavily compressed, so the BMP is typically many times larger for the same image dimensions.
What happens to JPX's extra features like extra colour spaces or layers?
BMP is a simple single-layer RGB bitmap, so JPX's compositing layers and extended colour spaces are flattened to one standard image; only the final rendered picture is kept.
