You need to tell us how do you want your
array of bytes to look like.
ex: all pixels row per row, without padding, in this format ?R(8bits)G(8bits)B(8bits)
Yes, export as simple C header row per row. Color format R8G8B8
This document discusses PhotoShop format support, but it doesn't really discuss what you seem to want.
However, I can tell you definitely that GIMP will export an image as a C header (note: save the GIMP format file first, the use
Export As - the 'save' function always saves as an XCF file first, and you usually have to save first before you can export). However, the format it saves to is a lot more complex than what you are looking for, and the files it produces are enormous compared to you typical compressed image format such as PNG or JPEG - I just tried it to save a 261KB file, and the header file was over 1.6 MB. Part of this is the lack of compression - when I checked, I found that the equivalent BMP file is almost as big, at 1.1 MB - but the text format itself is not particularly suited for bitmaps in the first place (the one major text-based format, SVG - which is an XML format - is designed for defining vectors rather than bitmaps, hence the name Scalable Vector Graphics).
