What happens to your data
Kept
- Both lossy and lossless WebP files are supported
- A plain 24-bit bitmap that opens in practically any Windows program, however old
Good to know
- For an animated WebP only the first frame is used.
- BMP is uncompressed, so the file is far larger than JPG or PNG.
- BMP has no transparency.
- Transparent areas become white, because the new format has no transparency.
- The source is already compressed, so converting to a lossless format makes the file bigger without adding any detail.

WEBP vs BMP
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.

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.
