- Convert it to .BMP in a few seconds.
- Download your new .BMP file.
What to expect
- Layers, masks and editable text are flattened into one static raster image.
- Pixels are stored uncompressed, so there is no compression loss but the file is large.
- Standard BMP has no transparency, so transparent regions become a solid background.
Frequently asked questions
Does converting PSD to BMP keep image quality?
Yes. BMP stores pixels uncompressed, so the flattened image is preserved without compression loss. The trade-off is that PSD's layers, masks and editable text are merged into a single flat picture.
Why convert a PSD to BMP?
BMP is a simple raster format that every version of Windows and virtually every image viewer opens with no extra software, making it useful when you need a plain, universally readable bitmap of your Photoshop artwork.
What opens a BMP file?
Every major operating system and image viewer reads BMP by double-clicking; it is a long-standing open Microsoft format with near-universal support.
What is lost moving from PSD to BMP?
All layer structure, masks, adjustment layers and editable text are flattened into fixed pixels, and standard BMP does not preserve a transparency channel, so any transparent areas are filled with a solid background.
