Plot monochrome bmp format in Python

Question

I want to plot a string of monochrome bmp (something like 0x424D36020000000000003E0000.......) in Python, and further convert the plot to JPG or some common type of image.
Does anyone know how to do so?
Thanks

You can do it like this with PIL/Pillow:

from PIL import Image
from io import BytesIO 

# Get your string called "bmp" wherever/however you got it

# Open string as PIL image
im = Image.open(BytesIO(bmp))

Yo can now display the image with:

im.show()

You can get the size of the image with:

print(im.size)

And you can save it as a JPEG or anything else you fancy like this:

im.save('result.jpg')
