    How to convert a PDF to JPG

    Three steps — free, browser-based, and nothing to install.

    1. Upload your PDF

      Drag one or more PDFs onto the drop zone, click to browse, or paste from the clipboard with Ctrl+V (⌘V on Mac). Up to 20 documents per batch, 200 MB each.

    2. Choose resolution

      Pick 72, 150, 300 or 600 DPI. 150 DPI is the default and works well for screens; 300 DPI is better when the JPG will be printed or cropped. Use the page range field to export only specific pages.

    3. Download your JPGs

      Each page appears as a thumbnail you can download individually. Grab the entire batch as a single ZIP, or copy a page straight to the clipboard for pasting into presentations or chats.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I convert a PDF to JPG for free?
    Drop your PDF onto the converter above — it starts automatically and finishes in seconds. There is no signup, no watermark, and no hidden paid tier. Every page of every file is converted free of charge, up to 20 PDFs in one batch.
    What is the difference between JPG and JPEG?
    They are the same format. "JPEG" is the official name (Joint Photographic Experts Group), and "JPG" is the three-letter file extension that became standard on older systems. This tool outputs .jpg files using standard JPEG compression.
    Does it convert every page or only the first one?
    Every page. A 30-page PDF produces 30 numbered JPG files (report-page-01.jpg through report-page-30.jpg), and you can download them all in one ZIP. The limit is 500 pages per file.
    What DPI should I use for PDF to JPG conversion?
    150 DPI is the default and suits most on-screen uses. Choose 300 DPI when you plan to print or crop the image. 72 DPI works for quick thumbnails, and 600 DPI is available for archival-quality scans. Safari caps images at about 16 megapixels, so very high DPI on large pages may be scaled down automatically.
    Will converting to JPG reduce image quality?
    JPEG uses lossy compression, so there is a small quality trade-off compared to PNG — but at the 92% quality setting this tool uses, the difference is invisible for most documents. The upside is significantly smaller file sizes, especially for pages with photos or gradients.
    Can I convert only certain pages?
    Yes. Type a page range into the Pages field — for example 1-3, 8, 12- means pages one through three, page eight, and everything from page twelve onward. Leave it empty to convert all pages.
    Are my PDFs uploaded to a server?
    No. The entire conversion happens inside your browser using pdf.js. Your PDF never leaves your device — nothing is uploaded, stored, or logged. Close the tab and everything is gone.
    When should I use JPG instead of PNG?
    JPG is better when file size matters: email attachments, web uploads, or documents with photographs. PNG is the better choice when you need lossless quality, transparency, or sharp text edges. For most everyday uses — sharing a page from a report, attaching a chart to an email — JPG is the practical pick.

    About this tool

    A PDF stores pages as vector instructions — glyphs, paths, embedded images — while a JPG is a compressed pixel grid. Converting between them means rasterising each page at your chosen resolution, then encoding the result with JPEG compression. This tool does both steps with Mozilla's pdf.js, the same renderer Firefox uses to display PDFs.

    JPEG is the right target when you need compact files: its lossy compression produces images roughly 3-5x smaller than the equivalent PNG, which matters for email attachments, web galleries, or slide decks with dozens of pages. At the 92% quality level used here, compression artifacts are negligible for typical documents.

    Common use cases: extracting a chart from a report for an email, turning a scanned contract into images for annotation, or creating thumbnails of a multi-page proposal. If you need lossless output or transparency, use the PDF to PNG converter. Going the other direction? The PNG to PDF converter wraps images back into a PDF document.

    Where your documents go

    Nowhere. pdf.js renders each page inside this browser tab, so no byte of your PDF is sent to a server, logged, or stored. Close the tab and everything — originals and converted JPGs — is gone.
