PDF to PNG
Choose the pages and the resolution, and each page comes out as a pixel-sharp PNG - text, diagrams and screenshots without a trace of compression. One page saves as a single image, more as a ZIP.
Step-by-step guide with screenshotsFor pages that must stay pixel-sharp - diagrams, tables, small print: each page rendered as a lossless PNG at 72, 150 or 300 dpi. Everything happens in your browser - nothing is uploaded.

A PNG is lossless: text, diagrams and screenshots stay pixel-sharp, and the file is bigger for it. Photos and scans are smaller as JPG, one click away in the rail.

Frequently asked questions
How do I convert a PDF to PNG?
Open the PDF, pick the pages and the resolution, and save. Every page becomes a lossless PNG - text and lines stay pixel-sharp - and several pages come as a ZIP.
Why PNG rather than JPG?
PNG is lossless: diagrams, screenshots and small text keep their edges, at the cost of a bigger file. For photos and scans JPG is smaller; the same tool offers it.
Is the PDF uploaded?
Nothing is uploaded: the file is opened and processed inside your browser and never leaves your device. Close the tab and it is gone.
Will the PNG have a transparent background?
No - a page is white, so it is rendered onto white. If you want the pictures that are embedded in the document, with their own transparency, use Extract images instead: it takes them out of the file as they were put in.
Which resolution keeps small text readable?
150 dpi is enough on screen; 300 dpi keeps footnotes and small print crisp and is what you want if the image will be printed or zoomed into. The rail shows the pixel size an A4 page will have at each setting.
Can I use a Word, Excel or PowerPoint file, or a photo, instead of a PDF?
Yes. Drop in a .docx, .xlsx or .pptx file or an image (JPG, PNG, WebP...) and it is turned into a PDF in your browser as it arrives - an image onto an A4 page - then handled like any other PDF; nothing is uploaded. The conversion is our own, so the result can differ slightly from Office's own PDF export: a font may be substituted and charts are left out. The file list shows a warning when something couldn't be carried over.
