Hi enedis.ibrahim,

As an image converter, you can use the BmpCvt.exe that you find in the

Hi enedis.ibrahim,

Just open the image that you want to convert, and save it as ''C'' BMP file. -Hannibal-

Ok, the concept you need to wrap your head around is this byte array is just a representation of the bytes within the .BMP file. Now there may be other constraints about what type of BMP file you use, ie dimensions of image, colour depth, etc.

You might want to use tools like GIMP to get the graphic image in the form you need/want. You could take the .BMP and use basic File IO functions (fopen, fread, fseek, fclose, etc) and read the binary data from the file, and output it in the same type of textual ASCII format used by C to allow you to encapsulate the file data into an array. If you are not familiar with data representations in memory, and those in files, please get a File Viewer (Hex Editor, etc) and look at the content of the files, and how that is reflected in these compilable C arrays.

enedis.ibrahim,

You can work with it like with any other file with source code. Do you know that output format can be adjusted?
