Description	🔵 .bmp (Bitmap Image File) The .bmp format, also known as bitmap, is a raster graphics image file format used to store digital images. This format was developed by Microsoft for use on Windows, and it is widely supported on both Windows and macOS systems. BMP files are typically large because they contain a detailed, uncompressed representation of the image data. This format is suitable for storing high-quality digital photos, though it's not as commonly used for web or email due to its large file size compared to formats like JPEG or PNG.
