What PDF to JPG does

Convert PDF pages into JPEG images. The typical case is needing one page out of a document as a picture — a certificate to attach to a profile, a diagram to drop into a deck, or a page to post where PDFs simply do not preview. JPEG is the format nearly every platform accepts without argument.

Limitations

  • Each page is rendered to a bitmap at the resolution you choose; text becomes pixels, so the JPGs are not searchable or editable.
  • JPEG compression softens sharp edges. For crisp line-art or text at small sizes, use PDF to PNG instead.
  • Very long PDFs (hundreds of pages) are limited by your device's memory rather than by an upload cap.

Questions

Do I get one image per page?

Yes. Multi-page PDFs are returned as separate JPG files inside a ZIP archive.

Can I choose only some pages?

Yes. You can optionally set a page range before conversion.

Should I choose JPG or PNG for this?

JPEG gives smaller files and suits pages that are mostly photographs. PNG keeps text and fine lines sharper. For a page dense with small type, PNG is the better choice.

Can I convert just one page?

Extract the page you want with the extract-pages tool first, then convert that single-page PDF. It saves producing images you will only throw away.

Why does small text look slightly soft?

JPEG compression is tuned for photographs and blurs hard edges a little, which is most visible on small type. PNG avoids that at the cost of a larger file.

What resolution are the images?

Pages are rendered at 2× their point size by default — about 1190 × 1684 pixels for an A4 page at the default 2× (roughly 144 DPI) — which is sharp on screens and fine for most printing. For large prints export a PDF page to PNG instead; JPEG softens fine edges.

Why is the download a ZIP?

A multi-page PDF produces one image per page, and the browser can only trigger one download at a time, so the images are packed into a ZIP. A single-page PDF downloads as a plain JPG.
