What is PDF to BMP?
BMP is an uncompressed raster format used in specific workflows requiring raw pixel data — certain legacy systems, specialized print pipelines, or applications that don't support JPEG or PNG.
PDFStream converts each PDF page to a BMP image in your browser. The output is uncompressed, preserving exact pixel values with no lossy encoding — appropriate when downstream processing requires unmodified pixel data.
Use cases: preparing pages for input into legacy document processing systems, exporting to workflows that specifically require BMP, creating uncompressed page images for bitmap-level analysis, or satisfying specific technical requirements in regulated industries.
How-to

Practical tips
For legacy systems only
Use BMP when older software or industrial equipment accepts nothing else; otherwise PNG is more practical.
Expect very large files
BMP is uncompressed, so each page can be many megabytes. Check storage before converting long documents.
Exact pixel data
No lossy compression is applied, which suits workflows that need unmodified pixels.
Frequently Asked Questions
When do I need BMP files?▼
Some older software or industrial equipment may only support BMP.
Are BMP files large?▼
Yes, BMP is a lossless, uncompressed format, so files are larger than other formats.
Is the file saved on the server?▼
No, all processing is local.
