About these samples

These are synthetic sample files for testing and learning. They are not real user documents and are not intended to contain personal data. A matching SHA-256 confirms you received the published bytes — it is not a malware scan or a guarantee that every application will accept the file.

What's in these samples

Checked on example-10kb.bmp (10,206 bytes): 71 × 47 pixels, 24-bit Windows bitmap. File size and image resolution are separate — small dimensions suit byte-limit tests, not high-resolution processing.

What Is a BMP Example File?

A BMP example file is an uncompressed Windows bitmap for legacy image uploads and converters.

Uncompressed bitmaps grow quickly with resolution — use the Actual size column for limit tests.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are BMP example files free?

Yes. Published BMP samples are free to download.

What are the 10 KB BMP dimensions?

71 × 47 pixels, 24-bit. Larger downloads have different dimensions — check the file you need.

Why can BMP files look “large” for the resolution?

Uncompressed bitmaps store pixel data without JPEG-style compression, so byte size rises quickly as width and height grow.
