About PDF to JPG
Sometimes you need a PDF page as a picture: to post it, drop it into a slide, or send it through a chat app that previews images but not documents. This converter renders every page of your PDF using the open-source PDF.js library, then saves each one as a JPG. Choose a resolution between quick screen previews and sharp print-ready images, adjust the JPG quality, and download single pages or every page bundled into a ZIP. Pages are named after the PDF with their page number, so they stay in order.

Common reasons to turn a PDF into images
Images go places PDFs can't. You might want to post a page of a menu, flyer or certificate on Instagram, put a slide or chart into a presentation, send a page in WhatsApp so it previews instantly, or upload a document to a site that only accepts JPG or PNG. Converting each page to a JPG makes all of that easy.
Teachers turn worksheet pages into images for slides, sellers post catalogue pages as product photos, and event organisers share a poster PDF as a picture that shows up directly in a feed instead of as an attachment.
Which resolution should you choose?
Resolution decides how many pixels each page gets. 72 DPI makes small files suitable for quick previews and chat apps. 150 DPI is the best all-round choice for screens, presentations and social media: an A4 page becomes about 1240 × 1754 pixels. Choose 300 DPI when the image will be printed or when you need to zoom in on small text; files are about four times bigger.
A useful rule: if small print must stay readable in the image, go up a step.
Getting just the pages you need
Every page is converted, and you can download only the ones you want, or all of them in one ZIP. Pages are named after the PDF with the page number, so they stay in order. To work with a few pages of a long document, first pull them out with Split PDF, then convert the smaller file.
Converting on your phone and sharing the result
On iPhone and Android, tap the box to choose a PDF from Files, Downloads or a cloud drive, convert it and save the JPGs to your device. From there you can share a page straight to WhatsApp, Instagram or email like any other photo.
For social media, 150 DPI is plenty: Instagram and most chat apps resize images to about 1080 pixels wide anyway, so higher resolutions only make the upload slower. If the result is still too large for a form, shrink it with the image compressor.
JPG, PNG or text?
JPG is ideal for pages with photos and keeps files small. If you need the words rather than a picture of them, copy the text out with PDF to text instead, which is searchable and editable. And if you later need to turn images back into a document, JPG to PDF does the reverse. Password-protected PDFs need to be unlocked with their password first.
Questions
Which resolution should I choose?
72 DPI gives small files suited to quick previews. 150 DPI is a good all-round choice. 300 DPI produces large, sharp images for printing or reading small text.
Does it work with password-protected PDFs?
Not at the moment. If a PDF needs a password to open, the converter will tell you. Remove the password in a PDF app you trust, then try again.
Can I convert only some pages?
Every page is converted, but each page has its own download link, so you can save only the ones you need.
Will the text in the JPG be selectable?
No. A JPG is a picture of the page, so text becomes part of the image.
Does a long PDF take a while?
Pages are rendered one at a time on your device, so a 100-page document at 300 DPI can take a minute or more on slower phones. The progress bar shows how many pages are done.
