Information about BMP and XBM file formats
| Name | BMP | XBM |
| Full name | BMP - Microsoft Windows bitmap | X BitMap |
| File extension | .bmp, .dib | .xbm |
| MIME type | image/bmp, image/x-bmp | image/x‑xbitmap |
| Developed by | Microsoft | Unknown |
| Type of format | Raster graphics | |
| Description | The BMP file format, also known as bitmap image file or device independent bitmap (DIB) file format or simply a bitmap, is a raster graphics image file format used to store bitmap digital images, independently of the display device, especially on Microsoft Windows and OS/2 operating systems. | XBM (X BitMap) is a file format for bi-level raster images, originally associated with the X Window System. It was, and to some extent still is, widely supported by graphics software. An XBM file is plain text, and doubles as a fragment of "C" programming code. The format is very inefficient in size, but it can be useful as a simple way to embed an image into a "C" program. |
| Technical details | The bitmap image file consists of fixed-size structures as well as variable-size structures appearing in a predetermined sequence. Many different versions of some of these structures can appear in the file, due to the long evolution of this file format. | |
