What TIFF to BMP conversion does
Convert a TIFF image to BMP directly in your browser. BMP is a widely recognized uncompressed bitmap format still expected by some older Windows software and compatibility workflows.
How to convert TIFF to BMP
- Choose a TIFF or TIF file.
- Select Convert & download.
- Save the .bmp file from your browser downloads.
Why use this conversion
BMP is the format some legacy Windows applications, print pipelines, or embedded/older tooling expect by default.
Transparency and output quality
BMP output here is 24-bit RGB with no alpha channel. Transparent pixels from the source are flattened onto a white background, the same convention used for JPG output. This tool writes an uncompressed 24-bit BMP, so the file will usually be noticeably larger than the source.
Privacy and local processing
- Processing occurs locally in the browser.
- Files are not uploaded to Looty Tools for conversion.
- Converted files remain on your device.
Limits and known issues
- Input: TIFF (.tif, .tiff) only, up to 25.0 MB and 8,192 px per side.
- BMP output has no transparency support in this tool — pick an output format that keeps alpha (WebP, AVIF, TIFF, ICO, or QOI) instead if you need to preserve transparency.
- Multi-page TIFF: only the first page is converted to BMP. Additional pages are not extracted or included in the download.
- Metadata is not preserved in the downloaded file.

TIFF to BMP FAQ
- Why convert TIFF to BMP?
- BMP is the format some legacy Windows applications, print pipelines, or embedded/older tooling expect by default.
- Does BMP output keep transparency?
- No. BMP output here is 24-bit RGB with no alpha channel. Transparent pixels are flattened onto a white background, the same convention used for JPG output.
- Is BMP output compressed?
- No. This tool writes an uncompressed 24-bit BMP (BITMAPINFOHEADER, BI_RGB), so the file will usually be larger than the source.
- Does this convert every page of a multi-page TIFF?
- No. Only the first page (IFD) is converted. Additional pages are not extracted or included in the download.
- Are my files uploaded?
- No. Conversion runs locally in your browser and does not upload your file to Looty Tools servers.
- What is validated before conversion?
- The file must actually be a TIFF — the tool checks the byte-order header (little-endian "II*" or big-endian "MM*"), not just the filename or extension, before decoding.
