How to Convert PDF Pages to JPG Images With the Right Quality

A PDF page as a picture is useful for posting on social media, inserting into slides, sending as a photo or uploading to a portal that accepts only JPG.

Quick answer

Add the PDF, choose the quality, and each page becomes its own JPG. Several pages come as one ZIP file. For PNG use the "PDF to Image" tool.

Choosing quality (DPI)

• 100 to 150 DPI: screens, chat apps, email. Small files.
• 200 DPI: sharp for presentations and light printing.
• 300 DPI: printing documents and photos.

Higher DPI means a larger picture in pixels and a bigger file.

Steps

1. Open the tool and add the PDF.
2. Pick the quality.
3. Convert and download.
4. Open the ZIP and use the pictures.

Why a JPG may be wrong for you

• Text stays as pixels. You cannot select or search it. For text use PDF to Word or PDF to Text.
• Sharp lines get slight artefacts. For screenshots and diagrams, PNG may look cleaner.
• Large pages become very large pictures. Reduce DPI if the file is too big.

Tips

• Name files so pages are in order when you upload them.
• To get just a few pages, extract them first with Extract Pages.
• To combine all pages into one tall picture, use PDF to Long Image.
• Pictures can be compressed with the Resize and Compress tool.
