PDF to Image
Convert each page of a PDF into a high-quality PNG or JPEG image. Select specific pages or ranges, choose your resolution, download individually or as a ZIP. Everything runs in your browser.

DPI Control
Choose 72 DPI for quick previews, 150 DPI for standard use, or 300 DPI for print-quality images from your PDF pages.
ZIP Download
Download pages one by one, or grab all of them at once as a ZIP archive. Multi-page PDFs stay organized automatically.
100% Private
Your PDF never leaves your device. Rendering happens locally via pdf.js in your browser. No server upload, no storage, no tracking.
How it works
How PDF to image conversion works
This tool uses Mozilla's pdf.js library to parse and render each page of your PDF directly in the browser. The PDF is loaded into memory, each page is drawn onto an HTML Canvas element at the selected DPI, and the canvas content is exported as a PNG or JPEG image. You can convert all pages at once or specify a page range (e.g. 1-3, 5, 8-10) to extract only what you need. No server is involved — the entire process runs locally. If your goal is to go the other direction and combine images into a PDF, use the Image to PDF converter.
Choosing the right DPI
DPI (dots per inch) controls the pixel density of the output image. 72 DPI matches screen resolution and produces the smallest files — good for quick previews or web use. 150 DPI is a balance between quality and file size, suitable for most purposes. 300 DPI produces print-quality images but larger files — ideal when you need to print the pages or zoom into fine details. To check whether the resulting images meet print requirements, run them through the Print Readiness Scanner.
PNG vs JPEG output
PNG preserves every pixel exactly and supports transparency — best for documents with text, diagrams, or sharp edges. JPEG compresses the image, producing smaller files but with slight quality loss — better for photo-heavy PDFs. If you need to convert the output to another format later, use the Format Converter. For reducing file size further without visible quality loss, the Image Compressor can help.
Privacy and use cases
Common uses include extracting slides from presentation PDFs, converting scanned documents to images for OCR, and preparing PDF pages for social media or web publishing. Since the conversion runs entirely in your browser, sensitive documents like contracts, medical records, or financial statements stay private. After converting, you can crop pages with the Image Cropper or annotate them with the Image Annotator. Explore all 92 image tools.
Converting PDF pages to images is essential in several professional workflows. Designers extract individual slides from presentation decks to share on social media or include in portfolios. Legal teams convert contract pages to images for redaction with the Redaction Tool — pixel-level censoring is more reliable than PDF text redaction, which can sometimes be reversed. Researchers convert journal articles to images for annotation, and educators turn textbook pages into slide decks.
Choosing the right DPI depends on your end use. Screen-only output (web, social media, email) works well at 72-96 DPI, keeping file sizes small. General-purpose output at 150 DPI balances quality and size — good for internal documents, reports, or when you are unsure of the final use. Print output requires 300 DPI to avoid visible pixelation. After converting, run the output through the Quality Analyzer to verify the resolution meets your needs, or use the Text Scanner to extract readable text from the converted page images.
For batch workflows involving many PDFs, convert each document and then use the Image Resizer to adjust dimensions for your target platform. For processing many converted images at once, the Batch Scanner lets you review metadata and quality across all pages in a single pass.
