How to convert PDF to JPG
- Upload a PDF. The tool opens it and shows the number of pages.
- Leave Pages empty to convert everything, or enter pages like
1-3, 7. - Choose a resolution and JPG quality.
- Click Convert to JPG. Download single images or click Download all as ZIP.
Choosing the right resolution
Resolution is measured in DPI, or dots per inch. 72 DPI creates small images for quick previews and websites. 150 DPI is a good default that looks crisp on screens and in presentations. 200–300 DPI is best when you need to print the image or zoom into fine detail, but files are much larger. The quality slider controls JPEG compression: 80–90% is usually indistinguishable from the original.
Pages are rendered with PDF.js, the same engine Firefox uses to display PDFs, so fonts, vector drawings and images look as they do in a PDF reader. Each image is named after your file and page number, like report-page-3.jpg. Rendering happens in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
Why convert PDF pages to images?
- Post a page of a document on social media or in a chat app.
- Insert a page into slides or a document editor that can’t embed PDFs.
- Create thumbnails or previews of a report for a website.
- Share a single page of a menu, flyer or certificate as a picture.
PDF to JPG FAQ
Is the text in the images selectable?
No. JPG is an image format, so text becomes part of the picture. Keep the original PDF if you need to search or copy text.
Why is 300 DPI slow on my phone?
A single A4 page at 300 DPI is about 8.7 megapixels. Phones have less memory, so convert fewer pages at a time or use 150 DPI.
Does it work with scanned PDFs?
Yes. Scanned pages are already images inside the PDF, and they convert just like any other page.
