What does this PDF to PNG converter do?
It renders every page of your PDF into a separate PNG image at the resolution you choose. PNG is a lossless format, so the rendered pages have no compression artifacts at all — text edges, thin lines and flat colors come out exactly as the PDF engine drew them. You can save pages one at a time or download the whole set as a ZIP archive.
How to convert a PDF to PNG images
- Add the PDF using the upload box; its page count is read on your device.
- Choose a resolution: Standard (72 DPI) for small previews, High (144 DPI) for screens, Very high (216 DPI) for print-quality detail.
- Click convert. Each page renders in turn with visible progress.
- Download individual pages or the ZIP with all of them.
PNG or JPG — picking the right output
PNG is the format to choose when the pages contain text, tables, line art, diagrams or UI screenshots: it reproduces sharp edges perfectly and supports exact color. The trade-off is size — photographs rendered to PNG produce much larger files than JPG. If your PDF is mostly photos or scans and you want small shareable images, the PDF to JPG tool is the better fit. Many people use both: PNG for the slide with the chart, JPG for the page with the photo.
Local rendering, no uploads
Rendering is done by Mozilla's pdf.js engine running in your browser tab — the same code that displays PDFs in Firefox. The document is opened from your device's memory, drawn onto an off-screen canvas, and encoded to PNG by the browser itself. Nothing about the file, its contents, or even its name is transmitted anywhere.
Tips
- PNGs of text pages compress well; PNGs of photo pages get big fast. Choose the resolution the destination actually needs.
- Slides exported at High resolution (144 DPI) look crisp in docs, wikis and chat apps.
- Locked PDFs can't be rendered — run them through the Unlock PDF tool first.
