Convert DIB to XBM
Convert DIB images to XBM format, edit and optimize images online and free.
A Device Independent Bitmap (DIB) is a format for storing bitmap graphics, ensuring compatibility across different devices and platforms. Its primary use is to enable consistent image representation, regardless of the display hardware or software. Originating from early Windows operating systems, DIBs allowed developers to create graphics that would render accurately on various hardware. Today, DIBs are integral in applications needing uniform image display and manipulation, maintaining their relevance in diverse technological contexts.
The XBM (X11 Bitmap Graphic) file extension is a plain-text binary file format historically used in the X Window System to store monochrome bitmap images. Its primary use is for defining small, simple graphics such as icons and cursors. Originating from the 1980s, XBM files enable the inclusion of image data directly in C source code, facilitating easy integration and compilation within applications. While their use has declined with the advent of more advanced graphics formats, XBMs remain relevant for legacy systems and specific low-resource environments.
Drag and drop your DIB file or click Choose File to proceed.
Select customization options for DIB to XBM conversion, then click Convert.
Give the converter a few seconds, then download your XBM file.
Rotate DIB to right (90° clockwise), to left (90° counter-clockwise), 180°, and convert it to XBM.
Flip DIB vertically and/or horizontally (flop), and convert it to XBM.
The Vertopal CLI tool provides efficient conversion from DIB image into XBM image.
