What it is
The PDF to JPG Converter turns the pages of a PDF into JPG images, one per page.
Why turn a document back into pictures
Because some places will not take a PDF. Social media, a chat message, a slide deck, a marketplace listing, a form that only accepts images: all of them want a picture, and a PDF is not one.
It is also the quick way to use a single page as an image, for example putting a certificate into a presentation or a diagram into a document.
How to use it
- Add the PDF.
- Wait for the pages to render.
- Download the images, individually or all together.
What you gain and what you lose
The gain is compatibility: a JPG opens absolutely everywhere.
The loss is that text stops being text. In a PDF the words are characters that can be selected, searched and copied. Once rendered to JPG they are pixels, and none of that works any more. That is fine for sharing and wrong for archiving.
Two practical notes. JPG has no transparency, so any transparent area comes out solid, usually white. And a page rendered at screen resolution looks fine on screen and poor when printed, so if the result is going to paper, keep the PDF.
For a lossless version that keeps transparency, convert to PNG instead. To pull the words out as text, use the PDF to text extractor.
