How to Change BMP Format to JPG
BMP is a widely used digital image format. Short for "bitmap," BMP files are mostly used in applications running on the Microsoft Windows operating system. Unlike so-called "lossy" compression image formats, such as JPG or GIF, BMP files do not degrade in quality when edited and saved. The trade-off, however, is that BMP images tend to be much larger in size than most commonly used formats. Use one of several online conversion tools if you want to change BMP images to JPG format.
