How to open BMAP file?

The most common problem when using Apple Macintosh Screen Font Format is that a specific BMAP is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that BMAP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BMAP file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install Bmaptool

In this case, you should first verify that the Bmaptool application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Bmaptool into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file BMAP.

Programs to open BMAP file

Remember to download programs supporting BMAP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Bmaptool with BMAP files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the BMAP file still does not use the Bmaptool program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Bmaptool application as the default for handling the BMAP file.

Step 3. Update Bmaptool to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Bmaptool program with the Apple Macintosh Screen Font Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Tizen Project website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BMAP file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The BMAP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the BMAP file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BMAP file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected BMAP file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the BMAP files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BMAP file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted BMAP files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move BMAP to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the BMAP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the BMAP file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BMAP file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
