Convert DWF to BMP via Java

What is DWF file format?

DWF (Design Web Format) is a file format used for sharing 2D and 3D design data. It is developed by Autodesk and is used to transfer design data to other applications or users without losing the quality or complexity of the original design. DWF is a compact file format which allows users to quickly and easily share designs without having to worry about large file sizes. DWFs can also be easily viewed, shared and printed without the need for additional software. DWF files are widely used in the engineering, architecture and construction industries to reduce the risk associated with file corruption and data loss.

What is BMP file format?

BMP (or Bitmap) is a file format used to store digital images, especially on Microsoft Windows and OS/2 operating systems. It is used to store bitmap digital images, both monochrome (1 bit) and color (4, 8, 16, 24, and 32 bit). The BMP file format is widely used in the Windows world, where it is supported by virtually all the existing graphics applications. The BMP format is a device-independent bitmap graphics format that allows a flexible set of information to accompany the image data. A BMP file includes both encoded image data as well as information about the image, such as its size, resolution and color depth.

The BMP format supports various color depths. The BMP file compression method supports both lossless (uncompressed) and lossy (compressed) formats. Lossless compression saves space without sacrificing quality, while lossy compression sacrifices quality in order to save space.

BMP files are widely used in both professional and consumer applications. Web designers often use them for web page graphics to make their pages look better. They are also used for printing digital photos and for creating computer icons.
