The Graphics Display Designer (GDD) is an MPLAB IDE plug-in that provides you with a quick and easy way of creating graphical user interface (GUI) screens for embedded applications on Microchip microcontrollers. The GDD is a visual design tool created for use with the Microchip Graphics Library. The utility allows converting images in bitmap (BMP extension) format and JPEG (JPG or JPEG extension) as well as MS Window’s installed fonts or True Type fonts directly from files (TTF extension) into formats to be used with Microchip Graphics Library. Bitmap and fonts are converted to a new optimized encoding for PIC microcontroller usage while the JPEG encoding of JPEG images are maintained

Bitmap Image Format: Pixels are stored left-to-right, up-to-bottom. Color indices are zero based, meaning a pixel color of 0 represents the first color table entry, a pixel color of 255 (if there are that many) represents the 256th entry. For images with more than 256 colors there is NO color table.
