How to convert PNG into BMP in Java

  1. Read PNG image into Java
    BufferedImage bufferedImage = JDeli.read(new File("pngImageFile.png"));  
    
  2. Process image if needed (scale, sharpen, lighten, watermark, etc)
    bufferedImage = operations.apply(BufferedImage bufferedImage); // Optional
    
  3. Write out BufferedImage as BMP image file
    JDeli.write(bufferedImage, "bmp", new File("bmpImageFile.bmp"));

Export PNG to BMP in one line of code

The JDeli.convert() methods allow you to save PNG as BMP in just ONE line of code!

Using File

JDeli.convert(File inFile, File outFile);

Using InputStream and OutputStream

JDeli.convert(InputStream inputStream, OutputStream outputStream, "bmp");

Using byte[]

byte[] outputData = JDeli.convert(byte[] inputData, "bmp");

Configure Output Settings

This option allows you to specify an EncoderOptions object to configure output settings such as image compression.

JDeli.convert(File inFile, EncoderOptions outputOptions, File outfile);

Batch convert PNG to BMP from command line

Convert images from command line or bash, bat, and powershell scripts. This method can also be used to invoke JDeli from any programming language that allows you to create a child process.

java -jar jdeli.jar --convert bmp "inputFileOrDir" "outputDir"

Why JDeli?

  • Support image formats such as AVIF, HEIC and JPEG XL (AVIF soon) that are not supported in Java.
  • Process images up to 3x faster than ImageIO and alternative Java image libraries.
  • Prevent JVM crashes caused by native code in other image libraries such as ImageIO.
  • Handle JPEG, PNG, TIFF image file formats fully in Java.
  • Keep your Image files secure as JDeli makes no calls to any external system or third party library.
