PDF to PNG Converter

When a PDF page becomes a picture, the page is drawn at the resolution you choose and then stored in an image format. PNG stores that picture without loss, so the thin strokes of letters, the hairlines of a table and the edges of a diagram stay exactly as they were drawn. JPG would blur those edges slightly and add faint noise around text, which is why PNG is the better choice for anything that is mostly text or line art.

Typical uses are pasting a page into a slide deck or a design, attaching a chart from a report to a chat message, posting a page of a menu or a flyer online, and adding a page to an app or a tool that accepts images but not PDFs. For photos and scanned pictures where file size matters more than crisp edges, PDF to JPG makes lighter files.

Your PDF reader may offer something similar, such as a snapshot tool or an export option, but it usually works one page at a time and at whatever resolution the screen happens to show. Converting here gives every page the same chosen resolution, keeps the numbering, and handles a whole document or several documents in one batch.

Resolution decides how many pixels each page gets. An A4 page is 210 × 297 mm, about 8.3 × 11.7 inches, so at 150 dpi it becomes an image of roughly 1240 × 1754 pixels, and at 300 dpi 2480 × 3508 pixels, as the table shows. Doubling the resolution quadruples the pixel count, and the PNG grows with it.

Pick the resolution for the place the image is going. A slide or a web page rarely shows more than 2000 pixels across, so 150 dpi is enough. Print at full page size needs about 300 dpi. Engineering drawings with fine lines and very small text can use up to 600 dpi, at the cost of large files.

Content matters for size as well. A page of black text on white compresses very well in PNG, because long runs of identical pixels take little room. A page with a full-color photo or a gradient background compresses poorly and can be many times larger at the same resolution. If such pages make the ZIP too heavy, convert them separately as JPG and keep PNG for the text pages.

All pages are converted by default. Choose First page only for a cover image or thumbnail, or Selected pages with numbers and ranges to pick the rest. Color can stay in full color, or switch to grayscale or black and white for scanned documents. With Transparent background, the white paper is dropped and only the content remains.

Several PDFs can go in one batch, and each one gets its own set of numbered images, so pages from different documents do not mix in the download.

Pages arrive in one ZIP named in page order; choose Separate files under Download as to save each PNG on its own. Password-protected PDFs need to be opened first with Unlock PDF. Uploads are deleted once the images are ready, and the images after 30 minutes. For other targets such as TIFF, WebP or SVG, open the main PDF to Image tool.
