Picsel BITMAP IMAGE File Format Support

BMP

Windows Bitmap (BMP) is a format used by MS Windows and other

programs which value simplicity over economy. BMP files are almost

always uncompressed and so very large.

BMP can include 1, 4, 8 or 24 bits per pixel, allowing both indexed and

full colour. Neither transparency nor animation are supported.
