How to convert an SVG file Because SVG is a specialized file format, you might want to convert it to a bitmap file like JPG or PNG so you can more easily use it in other applications.

Title says it all. I want to convert a standard image to a 256-colour bitmap that is NOT an 8-bit (per channel) image file - ie it needs to use a 256-colour palette.

This is not a valid bitmap file, or its format is not currently supported. However, the same files can be opened using apps like GIMP, Photoshop, Paint 3D, IrfanView, Paint.net, etc.
