- Input formats
- BMP
- Output formats
- Supports uncompressed 24-bit and 32-bit BI_RGB BMP with a 40-byte DIB header.
- Compressed, indexed, and other BMP variants are rejected. The PDF uses the pixels decoded by the browser.
Supported bitmaps are decoded into RGB pixels before being embedded in the PDF. The result retains those pixel dimensions and fits them into the chosen page area. Lossless image encoding avoids adding JPEG artifacts, but unsupported BMP headers or compression modes return an error.
Maximum input size is 16 MiB per file.
