Why convert BMPs to black and white?

Imagine you’re working with an old bitmap (BMP) image, and it’s taking up far more space than expected. Even though BMPs are known for their high quality, they’re also notoriously large, especially when stored in full colour. Converting your BMP to black and white can dramatically shrink the file size, making it quicker to open, share, or store without sacrificing essential detail.

You might also want a black-and-white BMP for practical or design reasons. Monochrome bitmaps are perfect for icons, logos, or technical drawings where clarity matters more than colour. They print cleanly, scale well, and keep a consistent appearance across different screens and devices.

An online file converter makes it effortless to switch your BMP from colour to crisp black and white, preserving sharpness while cutting down on size. It’s a simple way to make your images lighter, clearer, and more versatile.
