<abstract>
<t>This note describes a proposed format for storing simple bitmaps (one bit per pixel) in a file. These  files may be very  large and the intent is to use this format for short term storage and passing data between closely coupled  programs. The data in the file should be stored in 8-bit bytes (octets).  Bitmaps may be any size.</t></abstract></front>
