About formats

FB2 (FictionBook) is an XML-based ebook format created by Dmitry Gribov in 2004, designed to provide a clean semantic description of a book's content independent of its visual presentation. Unlike page-layout formats, FB2 encodes structure — title, authors, chapters, annotations, genres, epigraphs, poems, footnotes, and binary attachments (typically cover images) — within a single well-formed XML document. This structural approach means reading applications have full control over rendering, allowing the same file to adapt perfectly to a small phone screen or a large e-ink reader. FB2 became enormously popular in Russia and Eastern Europe, serving as the dominant format on major Russian digital libraries and ebook distribution platforms. One significant advantage is metadata richness: the format's schema mandates detailed bibliographic information including author, translator, series position, publication date, and genre classification, making library management and discovery straightforward. The plain-text XML foundation is another strength — FB2 files are human-readable, easy to validate, and simple to transform using standard XML tools like XSLT. The format specification is freely available on GitHub, and a wide ecosystem of readers, editors, and converters supports it across all major platforms, from desktop applications like Calibre to dedicated e-readers with native FB2 rendering.

BMP (Bitmap) is a raster image file format developed by Microsoft for the Windows operating system, introduced with Windows 3.0 in 1990. The format stores pixel data in a straightforward structure: a file header specifying dimensions, color depth, and compression method, followed by an optional color palette and then the raw pixel array. BMP supports color depths from 1-bit monochrome through 4-bit and 8-bit indexed color to 16-bit, 24-bit true color, and 32-bit with alpha channel. Most BMP files store pixels uncompressed (BI_RGB), though optional RLE compression is available for 4-bit and 8-bit modes. Pixels are arranged in bottom-up row order by default, with each row padded to a 4-byte boundary. One advantage is absolute simplicity — the format has no complex encoding, filtering, or compression layers, making BMP files trivial to read and write programmatically in any language. This simplicity also means BMP images render with zero decoding overhead, useful in scenarios where decompression latency matters. The format's deep Windows integration is another strength: BMP is the native bitmap format for Windows GDI, clipboard operations, and device-independent bitmap (DIB) handling, ensuring first-class support across the entire Windows ecosystem. While BMP's lack of compression produces large files unsuitable for web use or storage-constrained environments, it remains widely used as an intermediate format in image processing, as a clipboard exchange format, and in embedded systems where decoding simplicity outweighs file size.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert FB2 to BMP?

BMP provides lossless, uncompressed page renders — useful when you need pixel-perfect image quality for print or editing workflows.

How large will the BMP files be?

BMP is uncompressed, so files are larger than JPG or PNG. This is by design — it preserves every pixel without artifacts.

What opens BMP images?

Windows Paint, macOS Preview, GIMP, Photoshop, and every standard image viewer on any operating system handles BMP natively.

Is this conversion free?

Yes. Convert FB2 ebooks to BMP on convertio.tools at no charge — no registration or payment information needed.

Can I choose specific pages?

The converter processes the entire FB2 ebook. All pages are rendered as individual BMP files you can download.
