Source format

What is BMP?

Bitmap Image (.bmp). BMP is Microsoft's bitmap format, normally uncompressed: every pixel is stored as it is, so files are large. Almost every Windows program reads it, but it is rarely used for sharing today.

Common use: Older Windows programs, simple uncompressed images

Output format

What is PPM?

Portable Pixmap (.ppm). PPM is the colour member of the Netpbm family: uncompressed RGB pixels with a tiny text header. Programs use it as a simple exchange format, but the files are large and few viewers open them.

Common use: Image processing scripts and tools

No. Both BMP and PPM store images without loss, so the converted file holds exactly the same pixels; it may be larger, because PPM is uncompressed.
Is my BMP file uploaded anywhere?
No. Filoshi converts on your PC with its built-in engines (FFmpeg, ImageMagick, Pandoc, PDFium, pdfcpu and 7-Zip). Your BMP file never leaves your computer.
