Bitmap | CAD - cadinfo.net

A bitmap image is a raster-based graphic comprising an array of pixels, each with a particular value. In a monochrome bitmap pixel values are either 0 (white) or 1 (black). Because each bitmap has a known number of pixels it also has a fixed resolution. Scaling a bitmap on a display and even the quality of the display system can compromise the quality of the displayed image. Common bitmap image formats include BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG.
