Updated the Bitmap header to BITMAPINFOHEADER according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMP_file_format#DIB_header_(bitmap_information_header) Slightly improved, now with bitmap size in header. Updating the header was necessary as inserting the previous version inside a PDF document wasn't possible.

@Apflkuacha can I ask, how exactly were you attempting to insert the bmp into a PDF? With Acrobat? With itextsharp? |

Yeah, that I mentioned withoud details. I was using PDFsharp to insert that bmp and with the old header it couldn't identify the image and with the newer header it works. |
