Convert CPT to BMP

What is CPT file?

The CPT file extension is used for Corel Photo-Paint documents created and managed by Corel Corporation. The program was introduced in 1991 as part of the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite, which was created to provide graphic editing programs to replace the Mac-based Photoshop. Corel Photo-Paint documents are based on a raster layer structure with layers that can be edited individually, independent of other layers. [ ⏩ ] CPT file extension

What is BMP file?

The .BMP file extension is a raster graphics file type used to store bitmap digital images. Bitmap images are made up of individual pixels – each with its own specific colour value. These images are ideal for high-resolution graphical elements such as logos and line drawings because they can be scaled to any size without losing any of the image's visual fidelity. Due to the large file sizes, BMPs are best used for illustrations or web site graphics that are only displayed at a certain size. [ ⏩ ] BMP file extension

How to convert the file from CPT to BMP?

To successfully convert the CPT file to BMP, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.CPT). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case BMP (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than BMP).

What is a file conversion?

A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. CPT to BMP. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.

Program for converting CPT files to BMP files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension BMP, while before this step we had the CPT file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new BMP file, or not.
