02 / what you get

What happens to your data

Kept

  • Standard Windows bitmaps are read as they are
  • Saved as WebP at quality 80, usually much smaller than JPG or PNG at the same look
  • Transparency is kept

Good to know

  • Very old software and some printers cannot open WebP. Use JPG or PNG there.
  • The new format is lossy, so tiny pixel-level differences from the original are expected. Keep the original if you need exact pixels.

BMP vs WEBP

BMP

A BMP file stores images with little to no compression, which means large file sizes but one of the simplest possible formats to read. It's an older Windows format you'll mostly encounter in legacy software or basic screenshot tools.

WEBP

A WebP file is a modern image format from Google that compresses smaller than JPG or PNG at the same quality, while supporting both lossy and lossless modes plus transparency. It's now the format most websites serve automatically to speed up page loads.
