Convert BMP to PDN

File Extension BMP
Full Name Standard Windows Bitmap Image (also OS/2)

Files with the .BMP extension contain an uncompressed raster image, or an image subjected to a non-lossy RLE compression. The data is saved in the form of a heading that defines the color scale and the height and width of the image in pixels, which is followed by data concerning the colors of each individual pixel, from the bottom upwards.

File Extension PDN
Full Name Paint.NET Image Format

File with a .PDN extension contains a bitmap image supporting many layers, effects, transparent pixels and different colour depth. These files are native for the Paint.net.

What is file format conversion?

File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "BMP") to another (referred to as "PDN"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, BMP file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format BMP to format PDN becomes essential.

So, how can we perform BMP to PDN file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format BMP and transforming it into format PDN. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of BMP to PDN converters.
