Why convert PDF to JPG?

The usual reason is that a JPG goes where a PDF cannot: a chat thread, a slide, an image-only upload form, a listing photo. People also flatten pages they want seen but not edited, since a JPG is a picture, not selectable, copyable text. A statement, a signed contract or a scanned ID is exactly the kind of document you would rather not hand to a random web service, and turning it into an image here means you do not have to.

What is PDF?

PDF (Portable Document Format) is the 1993 Adobe format that froze documents into a fixed, device-independent layout, and it has since become the legal and professional standard for anything that must look the same everywhere: contracts, invoices, forms, papers. A PDF can contain vector text, images, fonts and annotations. Editing one is famously awkward, which is exactly the point; it is a final-form format.

What is JPG?

JPG (or JPEG, for the Joint Photographic Experts Group that standardized it in 1992) is the most widely supported image format ever shipped. It uses lossy DCT compression tuned for photographs, which buys small files at the cost of discarding fine detail, and it has no transparency support. Practically everything that can open an image can open a JPG.

Quality and what to expect

Each page is drawn at 150 DPI by the PDF renderer and saved as JPEG at quality 0.9, which looks crisp on screen but is a fixed-resolution picture: text and vector art become pixels, so you cannot zoom in forever the way you can on the original PDF. A single page downloads as one JPG; anything longer arrives as a .zip holding page-01.jpg, page-02.jpg and so on, in order. If you need sharp text edges or transparency, convert to PNG instead, since JPG is lossy and softens fine lines.

PDF to JPG FAQ

What do I get for a multi-page PDF?

One .zip file containing a JPG per page, named page-01.jpg, page-02.jpg and upward in reading order, so you can open or share exactly the pages you want.

How sharp will the JPG be?

Pages are rendered at 150 DPI, which is clear on a screen for reading and sharing. It is a fixed-resolution image, so zooming in far past full size will start to look soft.

Is my document safe here?

Yes. The PDF is opened and every page is rendered inside your own browser tab, so a contract or bank statement is never uploaded and never reaches us at all.

Should I use JPG or PNG?

Pick JPG for smaller files and photos, and PNG when you need crisp text edges or a transparent background, since JPG compression slightly softens fine lines.
