1Upload your BMP images and wait for the preview to appear.
2Drag out the region you want to keep, or lock the selection to 1:1, 4:3 or 16:9 and drag freely inside that ratio.
3Confirm the crop — the same rectangle is applied to every file you uploaded, which is how a set ends up genuinely consistent.
4Download the cropped BMP file, with everything outside the frame discarded.
Crop BMP FAQ
Can I crop to a fixed aspect ratio?
+
Yes. Lock the selection to 1:1, 4:3, 16:9 or any custom ratio and drag freely inside that constraint — which is how you get a set of images that all fit the same layout slot without measuring anything.
Does my source format change how a crop behaves?
+
It can. BMP is essentially raw uncompressed RGB rows with a small header, so it is perfectly lossless and enormous — often 10-20x the size of the same image as PNG. That decides whether the crop is a pure pixel operation or whether the file has to be rebuilt around it.
What is the most common mistake when cropping BMP images?
+
Cropping before resizing. Crop first from the full-resolution original, then resize the result — doing it the other way round means the region you keep has already lost detail it did not need to lose.
Can I crop several files to the same region at once?
+
Yes, and that is the case worth doing here rather than in an editor: the same rectangle is applied across the batch, which is how a set of product shots ends up genuinely consistent instead of approximately consistent.
Will Crop BMP lower the quality of my BMP images?
+
No. A lossless source round-trips bit-exactly, so unless you explicitly ask for a lossy output format the pixels that come back are the pixels that went in. That is the whole reason to keep working in this family while you are still editing.
Does the alpha channel survive?
+
Yes. PNG and TIFF carry a full 8-bit alpha channel and it is preserved end to end. It is only flattened if you deliberately target a format that has no alpha, in which case transparent pixels are composited onto white.
Does Crop BMP cost anything?
+
No. Crop BMP runs free without an account and adds no watermark. Files are removed from the workers shortly after you download, and nothing about the image is retained.
What can I upload to Crop BMP?
+
PNG, BMP and TIFF are the lossless raster formats this handles directly, and lossy sources (JPG, WebP, GIF) work too if you want them in the same batch. Multi-page TIFFs are detected and handled page by page.
Why does a PDF site host Crop BMP?
+
PDF.to exists because PDF is where documents go to be shared and the worst place to keep them while they are still being worked on, so nearly every job here is about getting something into or out of that state deliberately. A document rarely arrives in the state it needs to leave in: it is too big, in the wrong order, locked, or a scan with no text in it. Crop BMP sits on the same upload and the same account as the conversions because those jobs turn up together.
What should I do with the result once Crop BMP is finished?
+
The converter on this site moves documents between PDF, Word, images, plain text and eBook formats in either direction, so whatever comes out of a tool here has somewhere to go next without a second upload. Running that after Crop BMP rather than before keeps the document structure intact through the step that is most likely to flatten it.
Is Crop BMP here the same tool the sibling sites run?
+
The engines are shared — the same document toolchain, the same workers, the same limits. What a PDF site adds is a view on when a file should stay a document and when it genuinely wants to become something else, which is the decision most tools quietly make for you. It also starts from one fact about the format this site is named after: a PDF is an object graph, not a page image, so text stays selectable and vectors stay sharp no matter what happens to the raster content inside it.
Do I need an account, and does anything get kept?
+
No account, and nothing is kept: uploads are deleted from the workers shortly after the job finishes, nothing is read and nothing is indexed. Free accounts exist for history and batch size, not for access.
