: How do I create true two-color images in GIMP? I want to create a file with 1 bit color-depth, i.e. one bit per pixel. Which file formats are suitable for that, and how do I do this in
I want to create a file with 1 bit color-depth, i.e. one bit per pixel. Which file formats are suitable for that, and how do I do this in GIMP?
This is for self-created checkerboard for subsequent experiments with image analysis and modification.
Thank you.
PS: I know about How to convert color images to black & white in GIMP? but if I store this as JPG or PNG, there are still gray pixels included.

In GIMP click Image > Mode > Indexed
Select the option which says "Use Black and White (1 bit) palette"
Click File > Export As
Give your file a new new name, and end with the file extension .BMP and hit Export - if a warning comes up about transparency not being supported in bitmap, ignore it, and hit OK.
