A PDF is great for documents but awkward when you need a page inside a slide deck, a blog post, a chat message, or a social post. Converting the page to a JPG or PNG image solves that — and you can do it entirely in your browser, with no upload and no watermark.
JPG or PNG — which should you choose?
JPG (JPEG) is lossy: it compresses aggressively, giving small files that are perfect for photographic or scanned pages. A quality slider lets you trade sharpness against size. PNG is lossless: it keeps text edges, line art, charts, and screenshots perfectly crisp, at a larger file size. Rule of thumb — text or diagrams → PNG, photos or scans where size matters → JPG.
What resolution (DPI) do you need?
The converter renders each page at a scale from 1× to 4×. Higher scale = more pixels = sharper image and larger file:
- 1×–1.5× — on-screen use, web pages, email. Small and fast.
- 2× — a good default; crisp on high-DPI (Retina) screens.
- 3×–4× — printing or zoom/detail work. Largest files.
The exact output dimensions in pixels are shown after you convert, so you can dial it in.
Convert specific pages, or all of them
Leave the page selector on All pages to convert the whole document, or switch to Custom range and type something like 1-3, 5, 7-9 to convert just those pages. One page downloads as a single image; multiple pages download as a ZIP with each page numbered.
Is it private?
Yes. The PDF to JPG tool uses pdfjs-dist to render pages to a canvas and export them as images — all locally. Your PDF never leaves your device, so it is safe for confidential documents. The only trade-off of image conversion is that the output is a picture, so the text is no longer selectable; keep the original PDF if you need selectable text.
Frequently asked questions
Can I convert a PDF to PNG specifically? Yes — choose PNG before converting. It is lossless, so text and line art stay sharp.
How do I get all pages in one download? Convert with more than one page selected and the tool packages them into a single ZIP.
Will the quality be good enough to print? Set the resolution to 3×–4× for print-quality output; 1×–2× is best for web.
