Complete Guide: GIF to BMP Conversion
Converting GIF to BMP creates an uncompressed version of the first frame. This is only useful for legacy systems requiring BMP format. Animation is lost and file sizes increase dramatically.
When to Convert GIF to BMP
- ✓Legacy software requires BMP format specifically
- ✓Industrial or scientific equipment accepting only BMP
- ✓You only need the first frame of an animated GIF
- ✓Working with very old Windows systems
Quality & File Size Notes
Only the first frame is converted. BMP doesn't support animation. File size will increase 5-10x or more. Transparency becomes a solid background color.
How to Convert GIF to BMP
Upload your GIF
Drag and drop your GIF. Only the first frame will be converted to BMP.
Select BMP output
