How to convert a PDF to JPG or PNG
Add the PDF
One file, up to 50 MB. Every page appears as a thumbnail, all selected to begin with.
Choose the pages
Tap any page to drop it from the export, or use all to reset. The count above the grid tells you what you are about to get.
Pick the format and the resolution
PNG is lossless and keeps text crisp; JPG is smaller and better for photographs. Then Screen, Balanced or Print, which trade file size against sharpness. Balanced suits most uses.
Press Export
The button names the number of pages. One page comes back as a single image; several arrive as a ZIP.
Frequently asked questions
Can I convert just one page?
Yes. Tap the pages you want in the preview grid and only those are exported; leave the selection empty to export every page. Whatever order you tap them in, they come back in document order with any duplicates removed, so page 9 is never filed ahead of page 2.
PNG or JPG: which should I pick?
JPG is smaller and fine for photos and slides, and it is written at quality 90 rather than left at a default. PNG is lossless and comes back as 24 bit colour, so text and diagrams stay exactly as they were rendered. Those are the only two formats, and anything else is refused before the job starts.
What resolution do the images come out at?
Three presets: Screen (100 DPI), Balanced (150 DPI) and Print (300 DPI). Those three are the only values accepted, so there is no custom box to get wrong. Balanced suits most uses, and Print is worth the extra size mainly when the images are going onto paper.
Is there a page limit?
Up to 200 pages in one export, and that counts the pages you selected rather than the length of the file: a 500 page report is fine as long as you are exporting 200 of its pages or fewer. A single page downloads as an image named for that page. More arrive as a ZIP, with the numbers padded to the same width so they sort correctly in a file manager, and the ZIP is stored rather than compressed because PNG and JPG already are.
How is this different from Extract PDF Images?
This renders each whole page, text and all, into a new picture, so what you get is a photograph of the page. Extract PDF Images does the opposite: it saves the pictures that were stored inside the file, at whatever resolution they were put there, without the text around them. If you want the page, use this one. If you want the photos out of a report and nothing else, use that one.
My PDF has a password.
It is refused before any rendering starts, with a message saying so, rather than failing halfway through. Take the password off with Unlock PDF and bring the file back here. Damaged files are caught at the same point and for the same reason.
