Some places only take pictures: a slide for a social post, a page of a contract dropped into a chat, a chart for a presentation, a cover thumbnail for a website. This converter renders every page of a PDF as a separate PNG or JPG file, so the content can go anywhere an image is accepted.
Add one or several PDFs, pick the image format and resolution, and press Convert. The pages are drawn by PDF.js, the open-source engine behind Firefox's built-in PDF viewer, running inside your browser. Download the pages one by one or all together as a ZIP; the PDFs themselves never leave your device.
Rendering a page versus extracting images
People mean two different things by PDF to image. Extracting pulls out the photos embedded in the file, at whatever size they were stored. Rendering, which is what this tool does, draws the complete page as a viewer shows it, with text, vector graphics, photos and backgrounds flattened into one picture. Rendering gives you a faithful snapshot of each page; it does not recover the original image files.
Text and vector shapes in a PDF have no fixed resolution, so the pixel size of the output is your choice. 1x matches a PDF viewer at 100 percent zoom, 96 pixels per inch, which turns an A4 page into about 794 by 1123 pixels. 2x, the default, doubles both sides to roughly 1587 by 2245, and 3x gives about 2381 by 3368.
When page images are the right format
Sharing a page where PDFs are awkward
Messaging apps, social networks and forums show images inline but turn a PDF into a download link that many people never tap. Convert the flyer or menu and share the page images, and people see them straight away.
Slides, diagrams and posters in other documents
A page from a PDF report placed in PowerPoint, Google Slides or a design tool as a 2x PNG stays crisp on a projector, and nobody has to open the original file to see it.
Previews and thumbnails
Manuals, menus and e-books often need a cover image for a website or a shop listing. Render at 1x in JPG for a light preview, then resize or compress it further if the page needs it smaller still.
Choosing format and resolution
Image format offers PNG, the default, and JPG. PNG is lossless, which keeps small text and thin lines perfectly sharp, but pages full of photos can produce large files. JPG, saved here at quality 92, is usually much smaller for photo-heavy pages; zoom in on fine print and you may spot faint fringes around the letters.
Resolution offers 1x, 2x and 3x. Use 1x for on-screen previews, 2x for most sharing and slides, and 3x when you need to zoom in or print a page at a decent size. Oversized pages such as posters or engineering drawings are scaled down automatically to stay within the browser's canvas limit of about 16.7 megapixels, so a 3x render of a huge sheet can come out smaller than requested.
Each image is named after the PDF and its page number, padded so the files sort correctly: report-page-01.png, report-page-02.png and so on. When you add several PDFs, every one is rendered with the same settings.
Cara memakai alat ini
- Drop one or more PDF files on the box above, or click Choose files. Each PDF can be up to 200 MB.
- Under Image format, pick PNG for sharp text or JPG for smaller files.
- Under Resolution, choose 1x, 2x or 3x.
- Press Convert and wait while the pages render.
- Download single pages from the results, or press Download all (.zip) to get every image at once.
What to keep in mind
- Every page is rendered; there is no page picker. To convert only a few pages of a long document, cut them out with Split PDF first.
- The images contain no selectable text. Use PDF to Text when you need the words themselves.
- Password-protected PDFs cannot be opened and show an error until the password is removed.
- Fonts that a PDF does not embed are replaced with similar standard fonts, so an unusual document can look slightly different from the original.
- Rendering hundreds of pages at 3x takes time and memory, especially on a phone. Try 2x first for long files.
