BMP Formats (original) (raw)
LEADTOOLS reads and writes the following BMP formats:
- Windows Bitmap (BMP). This is a file format created by Microsoft. Some BMP images are compressed with an RLE-type compression.
- OS/2 Bitmap (OS/2 BMP). These are files created on an OS/2 operating system. LEADTOOLS supports both 1.x and 2.x formats.
- You can read and write the following bits per pixel, without RLE compression: 1, 4, 8,16, and 24.
- You can read and write the following bits per pixel, with RLE compression: 4 and 8.
File constants associated with these file formats are:
| Constant | Read Support | Write Support | Description |

| FILE_BMP | 1, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32 BPP | 1, 4, 8, 16, 24, 32 BPP | [6] Windows BMP, with no compression. |
| FILE_BMP_RLE | 4, 8 BPP | 4, 8 BPP | [84] Windows BMP, with RLE compression. |
