If the 'text file' is just an exchange format, you could encode the picture as hexadecimal or as Base64 encoding (which will uses less space).

You've got BinToHex and HexToBin functions in Classes unit.

For instance:

function SaveAsText(Bmp: TBitmap): AnsiString;
var MS: TMemoryStream;
begin
  MS := TMemoryStream.Create;
  try
    Bmp.SaveToStream(MS);
    SetLength(result,MS.Size*2);
    BinToHex(MS.Memory,pointer(result),MS.Size);
  finally
    MS.Free;
  end;
end;

procedure LoadFromText(Bmp: TBitmap; const Text: AnsiString);
var MS: TMemoryStream;
begin
  MS := TMemoryStream.Create;
  try
    MS.Size := length(Text) shr 1;
    HexToBin(pointer(Text),MS.Memory,MS.Size);
    Bmp.LoadFromStream(MS);
  finally
    MS.Free;
  end;
end;

This is the method used e.g. by the MIME format to attach a binary file to an email (using Base64 encoding). An email is just some text. You may have to add some delimiters before and after the hexa/base64 text, just as MIME, to mark that this is some data, not text.
