Convert PDF pages to JPG images
When should you convert PDF to JPG?
JPG is useful when a PDF page needs to be treated like an image rather than a document. You may need a page thumbnail, an image for a presentation, a preview for a website, or a picture that can be inserted into software that does not accept PDF files.
Choose the right resolution
Higher DPI creates larger images with more detail. Lower DPI creates smaller files that may be enough for previews and screen viewing. For text-heavy pages, a higher resolution can make small text easier to read. For web thumbnails, a moderate resolution is usually more practical.
JPG compared with PNG
JPG is well suited to photographs and general page previews because it can produce smaller image files. PNG uses lossless compression and can be better for sharp line art, diagrams and screenshots. PDF85 also supports PNG conversion through the PDF to Images workflow.
Multi-page PDFs
Each PDF page becomes a separate image. When several pages are converted, the images are packaged together in a ZIP archive so they can be downloaded in one step.
