BMP to PSD Optimization FAQ

Will PSD actually be smaller than BMP?

Almost always when going from PNG / JPG / TIFF into WebP or AVIF: expect 25-50% smaller than JPG at the same visual quality, 60-90% smaller than PNG. Going the other way (WebP / AVIF back to PSD = PNG / JPG) typically grows the file because you are leaving a more modern codec for an older one — useful for compatibility, not size.

Does BMP to PSD preserve transparency / alpha?

Transparency survives when PSD supports alpha (PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, TIFF, SVG). Converting to JPG flattens the alpha channel onto white — if you need transparency on the modern web target WebP or AVIF instead of PSD.

Will the PSD version look identical to the BMP on a Retina display?

At quality 80+ on WebP / AVIF the difference is invisible to anyone but a trained eye even at 3x device pixel ratio. Photos compress slightly more visibly than line art; if your BMP is screenshots or UI mockups, push quality to 90 or use a lossless PSD.

Will EXIF camera metadata survive BMP to PSD?

Usually not. In most conversions, camera EXIF fields such as the camera model and GPS position are not carried into the PSD. There is no setting on this page to keep or remove metadata, so check the result with a metadata viewer if it matters.

Can I batch convert a folder of BMP files to PSD?

Several files in one job need a paid plan. Free use is one file per conversion, one conversion an hour. On a paid plan you can add several files to one job, then download each result on its own or all of them in one ZIP.

Are my BMP files private during PSD conversion?

Yes. Uploaded BMP files are processed on our own conversion servers, no person reviews them, and they are never shared. The upload and the converted PSD are both deleted automatically about 24 hours after the conversion, which leaves time to download the result. See /privacy/ for the full policy.

How do I serve the PSD with a BMP fallback on my site?

Use a `<picture>` element: `<picture><source srcset="image.PSD" type="image/PSD"><img src="image.BMP" alt=""></picture>`. Browsers that understand PSD fetch the smaller file; older browsers fall back to BMP. WebP is supported in 96%+ of installed browsers, AVIF in 90%+.

Why is my PSD file unexpectedly bigger / smaller than I expected?

A BMP that is already heavily compressed (low-quality JPG) often grows when re-encoded into a lossless PSD (PNG / TIFF). A high-bitrate lossless BMP (PNG / TIFF) often shrinks 60-90% when going to a lossy modern PSD (WebP / AVIF). Image content matters too — photos compress very differently from line art and screenshots.

BMP

BMP files store images in uncompressed bitmap format, resulting in large file sizes but perfect accuracy.

PSD

PSD (Photoshop Document) is the native file format for Adobe Photoshop. PSD files store layered images, allowing for non-destructive editing and holding design elements. They are crucial for web-ready graphic design and photo manipulation.
