Hi Thorsten,
I think Graphics Converter can import QL screens, but not export them (unless
that changed in the 10+ years since I last used it :)
Not sure what you mean by bitmap, for example I think SMSQ/E sprites have their
own format. If you mean the format of the QL video memory (a picture that you
can LBYTES into video memory), one possible way I've used in the past is to
convert to the 8 colour palette in Photoshop, convert back to RGB and export as
a RAW file, then write a small SuperBASIC conversion program that takes the RAW
RGB file and converts it to the QL video memory format.
