- The CMP file format is associated with Discorp CMP Image, a lesser-known image format. It is primarily used for storing digital images in a compressed form, allowing for efficient storage without significantly sacrificing image quality. The format is designed to be compatible with specific software or devices, often related to the Discorp brand. Users typically encounter CMP files in environments or applications that specifically support or require this format for image manipulation or display purposes.
- A BMP file is an uncompressed raster image comprised of a rectangular grid of pixels. It contains a file header (bitmap identifier, file size, width, height, color options, and bitmap data starting point) and bitmap pixels, each with a different color.
