# Convert PDF to JPG Images

Turn each page of a PDF into a JPG picture, for social posts, slides, messaging apps or anywhere that will not take a PDF. Rendering happens in your browser.

**Quick answer:** To convert a PDF to JPG, add the PDF, choose all pages or some (for example 1, 3-5) and a resolution (150 dpi for screens, 300 dpi for print), then download the images or one ZIP. The pages are rendered in your browser.

## How to use it

1. Choose the PDF.
2. Pick the resolution and JPG quality, and whether you want all pages or only some.
3. Press Convert to JPG.
4. Download the images one by one or as a ZIP, or send them with a link.

## Which resolution to choose

| Resolution | A4 page becomes | Good for |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 72 dpi | 595 × 842 px | Quick previews, chat apps |
| 150 dpi | 1240 × 1754 px | Screens, slides, websites, most uses |
| 300 dpi | 2480 × 3508 px | Printing, zooming into small text |

Higher resolution means sharper text and larger files. Phones have a limit on how large an image they can draw, so very large pages at 300 dpi may be rendered slightly smaller; the result will tell you if that happened.

## JPG or PNG?

JPG is the right choice for most pages, especially those with photos, because the files are much smaller. For pages that are mostly text, line drawings or diagrams, PNG keeps edges perfectly crisp with no compression artefacts; use [PDF to PNG](https://sharelargefilesfree.com/tools/pdf-to-png) for that.

## Accurate, private rendering

Pages are drawn with pdf.js, the same open-source PDF engine used by Firefox, so fonts, vector graphics and images come out as they look in a PDF reader. The whole conversion runs on your device: your PDF is never uploaded, and the images are only shared if you choose to send them.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I convert only some pages?

Yes. Choose “Some pages” and type the pages, for example 1, 3-5.

### What resolution should I use for printing?

300 dpi. For screens and messaging, 150 dpi is plenty and makes smaller files.

### How do I get all the images at once?

Press Download all to save one ZIP file with every page image.

### Is the PDF uploaded?

No. Pages are rendered on your device.

### Does it work with scanned PDFs?

Yes. Scanned pages are already images, so they convert especially well.
