Maybe this will help someone...

From PictureDrawable to Bitmap, use:

private Bitmap pictureDrawableToBitmap(PictureDrawable pictureDrawable){ 
    Bitmap bmp = Bitmap.createBitmap(pictureDrawable.getIntrinsicWidth(), pictureDrawable.getIntrinsicHeight(), Config.ARGB_8888); 
    Canvas canvas = new Canvas(bmp); 
    canvas.drawPicture(pictureDrawable.getPicture()); 
    return bmp; 
}

... implemented as such:

Bitmap bmp = pictureDrawableToBitmap((PictureDrawable) drawable);
