Convert PDF to PNG
Turn each page of a PDF into a PNG picture. PNG keeps text and lines sharp, so it suits pages with small print or diagrams. A one-page PDF gives one PNG; a longer one comes back as a zip of numbered PNGs.
Higher numbers make sharper pages and bigger files. Every page becomes its own PNG.
How to use it
- Drop in the PDF.
- Pick a resolution. 150 dpi suits most screens, and 300 dpi is better for printing.
- Click Convert to PNG and save the image, or the zip of images for a longer PDF.
Questions
Why does each page become its own PNG?
A PNG holds one picture, so every page needs a file of its own. A PDF with several pages comes back as a zip file, with one PNG per page numbered in order.
PNG or JPG: which should I choose?
PNG keeps text and lines sharp, so it is the better choice for documents and diagrams. JPG makes smaller files, which suits photos or pages you only need to send.
Why are the PNG files bigger?
PNG stores every pixel exactly, which is why a page of text makes a larger file than the same page as a JPG. Choose 96 or 150 dpi unless the pages will be printed.
Do my files get uploaded?
No. The page does the work inside your browser, and your files are never sent to a server. That makes it fine to use with private documents such as contracts or bank statements.
