How to open file with .WBM extension?

Don’t you know what program to use to convert the .WBM file? Do you want to convert a .WBM file into a different format? Below you will find helpful information.

File extension .WBM

Full Name Developer Category
Wireless Bitmap Image Format N/A Raster Image Files
.WBM

The WBM file extension is associated with .WBM Wireless Bitmap images and is used for storing image files. WBMs are one of three graphics formats that are commonly used to represent images as encoded text, and they are the most efficient format. These files can be created, managed and edited using a variety of software applications like Adobe Photoshop, Ulead Gif Animator, Ulead Photo Express, CorelDRAW, Microsoft Paint and Corel Paint Shop Pro.

Construction and Features

Wireless Bitmap files have a hexadecimal byte structure in which two pixels are represented per byte. This makes them an efficient choice for transmitting bitmap images over low-bandwidth wireless networks. Additionally, the file size can be reduced significantly through compression algorithms like LZWD and Huffman coding when transmitted over such networks. This makes them ideal for use in applications such as SMS (Short Message Service) transmission where space is limited. WBM files are also commonly used for basic mobile phone graphics and have been superseded in terms of quality by newer formats like JPEG and PNG.

Similar File Extensions

Similar file extensions include .WBMP, .XPM, .PPM, .PGM and .BMP.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .WBM) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .WBM extension.

When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.

Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .WBM file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .WBM extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .WBM extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .WBM file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.

Other instructions

If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .WBM file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.

In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .WBM file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .WBM file) will be extended to the maximum.

It is also good to check

  • if the .WBM file has no errors
  • or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
In such a case it is best to try to download the .WBM file again from the same source on the Internet (or look for another source). If you received the file from another person, ask this person to re-send it. However, if the file was copied from some media, repeat the copying operation.
