WebP and BMP explained

WebP is a Google-developed format that offers both lossy and lossless modes, transparency, and animation in one container. In its lossy mode it typically produces files around 25–35% smaller than JPEG at comparable visual quality.

BMP stores pixels essentially raw, with little or no compression. A 1920×1080 BMP is around 6 MB regardless of what the picture contains, because every pixel takes the same space whether it is part of a gradient or a flat colour.

Where WebP files come from
Modern websites, and increasingly the default export from web-focused design tools.
Where BMP is used
Legacy Windows software, some scientific and industrial imaging tools.

WebP vs BMP

The two formats solve different problems, which is why converting between them involves trade-offs rather than a straight upgrade.

WebP is stronger at

BMP is stronger at
Trivially simple to read and write. No compression artefacts whatsoever. Still readable by very old software.

Why convert WebP to BMP?

People make this switch when they run into the limits of WebP: the file needs to be opened by arbitrary desktop software, emailed to non-technical recipients, or sent to a print shop. BMP is the better fit when a legacy application specifically requires it.

Be aware of the size trade-off: BMP is uncompressed, so expect the converted file to be considerably larger than the WebP you started with.

WebP limitations that prompt the switch
Desktop applications and older software often cannot open it. Some photo printing services and older phones reject it. Lossy WebP, like JPEG, degrades on re-save.
What you give up
Enormous files. No standard support for transparency in most variants.

Does converting WebP to BMP reduce quality?

Both formats store the content without discarding data, so this conversion preserves it exactly. The file size may change because the two formats compress differently, but the content itself is unaffected.

WebP is not always smaller. For simple graphics with few colours, a well-optimised PNG can still win.
