How to use
- Drop a PDF file onto the box at the top, or click it to choose one. Once it opens you see the page count, the size of the first page and the file size. If the PDF is password protected, a password box appears.
- In "Pages to convert", type the pages you want. You can mix ranges and single pages, like 1-3, 5, 8-, where 8- means page 8 to the end. Leave it empty to convert every page.
- Choose the resolution (dpi) and the format. 150 dpi is good for viewing on a screen or using as a document photo; choose 300 dpi if you plan to print. PNG keeps text crisp, while JPG or WebP make smaller files. Below the settings you see how many pixels each page will be.
- Click "Convert to images" and progress is shown page by page. A very large PDF takes time, so you can cancel with "Stop", and the pages already converted can still be downloaded.
- When it is done, each page appears with a preview and its file size. Click "Download" on each one, or "Download all as ZIP" to get everything at once. File names are the original name followed by the page number, like -p01 and -p02.
About PDF to Images
There are plenty of times you want a single PDF page as an image: dropping a table from a report into a slide, sending one page of a contract in a chat app, or posting part of a PDF as a picture on a blog. But many converters upload your PDF to a server, limit the number of pages or the file size, and have no way to pick pages, so you convert everything and then hunt for the page you need. This tool opens the PDF only in your browser and converts just the pages you pick. There is no upload and no download wait, and a private document never leaves your device.
Quality is set by the resolution. A PDF page has a size in inches, so the same page becomes a small screen-sized image at 72 dpi and a large print-ready image at 300 dpi. The tool calculates the pixel width and height before converting, so you can avoid results that are too big or too small. A page larger than 50 million pixels is reduced automatically to protect your device's memory. You can convert up to 200 pages at a time, and page numbers are padded in the file names so they stay in order when sorted.
Keep the limits in mind. Because each page becomes one picture, you cannot select, search or copy text in the converted images. If you need the text, copy it from the PDF itself or use a text recognition (OCR) tool. A password protected PDF can only be opened if you know the password; there is no way to remove a password. If a document does not embed its fonts, your device's fonts are used instead and the look can differ slightly. PDFs full of complicated graphics can take a few seconds per page, depending on your device.
Frequently asked questions
Where does my PDF go?
Nowhere. Your browser reads the PDF on your device, draws it as images and downloads them directly. A PDF password is only used on your device, too. The PDF reader library used here (Mozilla's pdf.js) is served from this site and does not contact any other server.
Can I convert only certain pages?
Yes. In "Pages to convert", type something like 1-3, 5, 8-. Leave it empty to convert every page. If you type a page that does not exist, you are told how many pages the PDF has.
What resolution should I use?
For viewing on a screen or sending in a chat, 150 dpi is right. For an image you plan to print, choose 300 dpi. Doubling the resolution makes the file roughly four times bigger, so raise it only as much as you need.
Can I copy text from the converted images?
No. The whole page becomes a picture, so you cannot select or search the text. If you need the text, copy it from the original PDF.
Does it work with password protected PDFs?
Yes, if you know the password. When you choose the file, a password box appears and you can continue once it is correct. There is no feature to unlock a PDF whose password you do not know.
Some characters look broken.
This can happen when the PDF does not contain its fonts and your device does not have them. Try opening the PDF on another device, or save it again as a PDF with fonts embedded from the program that created it.
