How to convert BMP to JPG

  1. Add your BMP image above — it's read locally in your browser, never uploaded.
  2. The output is set to JPG; press convert to re-encode it.
  3. Download your JPG file. The image keeps its original dimensions; only the format changes.

About converting BMP to JPG

Converting BMP to JPG re-encodes the image in the JPG format using your browser's canvas, so you can switch formats without extra software.

Everything happens on your device — nothing is uploaded. If JPG has no transparency, any transparent areas are filled with white, and FileTinker warns you first.

BMP files are uncompressed and often huge, which makes them awkward to email or upload. Converting to JPG applies efficient lossy compression that shrinks the file dramatically while staying readable everywhere, making it the practical choice for sharing photos that were saved or scanned in BMP.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert BMP to JPG?

Drag your BMP image into the tool above and press Convert. FileTinker re-encodes it as JPG in your browser, then you download the result.

Will converting BMP to JPG reduce the quality?

Converting to JPG re-encodes the image. PNG is lossless, JPG and WebP use light compression to keep files small; FileTinker uses a high-quality setting so the difference is hard to see.

What happens to transparency when I convert to JPG?

JPG has no transparency, so any transparent areas are filled with white. PNG and WebP keep transparency intact.

Are my images uploaded anywhere?

No. Conversion happens entirely in your browser — your image never leaves your device and nothing is stored on a server.

How much smaller will my BMP get as a JPG?

Usually far smaller, often a tenth of the size or less, because BMP stores every pixel uncompressed while JPG compresses the image. The exact saving depends on the photo's detail and the quality level you choose.
