I have a JPG file on the server which I want to convert to a Windows BMP
file. How can I do this in PHP ? I did not see a GD image function for
doing this.

Check your php.ini file, you should see a commented out line with
php_gd2.dll in there. Uncomment that, restart your web server, and you
should have GD support.

If I recall gd doesn't support bmp. However that was probably long
before gd2 and I started using imagemagick anyway and have since. You
should look into it especially if php doesn't have support via gd.

looks like you can do it using imagemagick:
