-IBM [[OS/2 BMP]] (also known as '''Presentation Manager Bitmap''' or '''PM Bitmap''') is a family of raster graphics formats used on OS/2. It is closely related to [[BMP|Windows BMP]].
+By '''OS/2 bitmap family''', we refer to the following image formats:
-The term '''OS/2 BMP''' can refer just to the "bitmap" formats (files with a signature of "BM"), or to the family of formats that also includes specialized [[OS/2 Icon|icon]] and [[OS/2 Pointer|pointer]] formats.
+See the individual articles for more information.
-There are two major versions of the bitmap format: '''OS/2 BMP 1.0''', and '''OS/2 BMP 2.0'''. For details, refer to [[BMP]].
