Command line BMP batch converter

MS Windows Bitmap (BMP)

Bitmap is a home Windows raster format, which is used practically for all possible raster data storage. The following parameters are used to adjust settings of this format.

bpp - color depth (default - 24 bpp)
rows - rows direction (default - "Bottom - Top")
quant - quantization (default - 8)
dither - dithering (defaylt - yes)

bpp

Bpp parameters specifies the number of bits used to transfer the color of one pixel. Its allowed values are.

1 - 1 bpp (Mono)
4 - 4 bpp (Indexed)
8 - 8 bpp (Indexed)
16565 - 16 bpp (5:6:5, RGB Hi color)
16 - 16 bpp (5:5:5:1, RGB Hi color)
160 - 16 bpp (5:5:5:1, RGBA Hi color)
24 - 24 bpp (True color)
32 - 32 bpp (True color, RGB)
320 - 32 bpp (True color, RGBA)

The default value is: 24.

Example:

-convertto bmp bpp:16

rows

Rows parameter specifies the order of saving rows in the resulting file. Its allowed values are:

bottom_top - rows are saved from bottom to top
top_bottom - rows are saved from top to bottom

The default value is: top_bottom.

Example:

-convertto bmp rows:top_bottom

quant

Quant parameter reduces the number of distinct colors used in an image while preserving visual image quality. Its value is any whole number from 0 to 8.

The default value is: 8.

Example:

-convertto bmp quant:4

dither

Dither is a form of noise, or 'erroneous' signal or data which is added to sample data to minimize quantization error. Dither parameter can accept two values: yes and no.

The default value is: yes.

Example:

-convertto bmp dither:no

ICPCL.exe -convertto bmp bpp:8 rows:top_bottom quant:1 dither:no -source "C:\Original files" -dest "C:\Converted files"

tips

Use quant parameter only if bpp parameter value is 1, 4 or 8 bpp.
Example:

ICPCL.exe -convertto bmp bpp:8 quant:3 -source "C:\Original files" -dest "C:\Converted files"
Use dither parameter only if bpp parameter value is 1, 4 or 8 bpp.

Example:

ICPCL.exe -convertto bmp bpp:8 dither:no -source "C:\Original files" -dest "C:\Converted files"
