Convert PSD to BMP in C# - Raster Image Processor

In the past, we published a blog post demonstrating how to convert PSD to JPG in .NET. This blog post will show you how to convert PSD to BMP in C# using Aspose.PSD for .NET. It is commonly known that PSD is pretty much a large file in size and requires more space than other image formats. So, converting a PSD file to any other raster image will benefit you in terms of space and compatibility. Therefore, we will develop a raster image processor using this .NET document conversion API to achieve PSD to BMP conversion. However, let’s start this guide and see the actual implementation of how to convert PSD to BMP in C# programmatically.

We will walk through the following sections in this article:

PSD Image Converter - API Installation

The installation phase of any third-party library plays a critical role in terms of reliability and usage. Fortunately, Aspose.PSD for .NET stands out here due to its very easy installation which is just running a command away. So, you can download the DLL file of this document conversion API or run the following command in the NuGet Package Manager.

PM> Install-Package Aspose.PSD

Convert PSD to BMP in C#

This section is about the implementation. We have a source PSD file that will be used to perform PSD to BMP conversion programmatically. The following steps demonstrate how to achieve SVG to PNG conversion in Java:

You may follow the following steps to build a raster image processor for your business app:

  1. Invoke the Load method of the Image class and load an existing PSD image.
  2. Create an instance of the BmpOptions class to define various BMP image options.
  3. Set the value of the BitsPerPixel property to define the bits per pixel.
  4. Define the buffer size hint by assigning a value to the BufferSizeHint property.
  5. Set the compression by setting the value of the Compression property.
  6. Initialize an instance of the BmpOptions class with the bmpOptions object.
  7. Invoke the save method, and provide output path and BMP options to convert PSD to BMP.

The following code sample shows how to convert PSD to BMP in C#:

Once you run the main file, you will see a new BMP file generated at your destination address. However, you can see the output in the image below:
