Convert PDF to PNG

Convert PDF pages to lossless PNG images — crisp text and graphics at your chosen resolution, single image or ZIP. Nothing uploaded.

Every page becomes a PNG — multi-page PDFs download as one ZIP

Files never leave your browser — all processing happens on your device.

Convert PDF pages into pixel-perfect, lossless PNG images — the right format when the page contains crisp text, diagrams, or UI that JPG compression would smudge. Single page or ZIP, resolution up to 200 DPI, nothing uploaded.

How to convert PDF to PNG

  1. Drop your PDF and check the page previews.
  2. Choose the resolution (150 DPI default; 200 for fine detail).
  3. Convert — one PNG for a single page, a numbered ZIP for more.

Why lossless matters for documents

JPG was built for photographs; around sharp edges — exactly what text, tables, and line diagrams are made of — its compression leaves faint halos and smudged strokes. PNG reproduces the rendered page pixel for pixel: a 6-point footnote stays razor sharp, a hairline table border stays a hairline. For documentation, tutorials, knowledge-base embeds, and anywhere a page will be studied rather than glanced at, PNG is the correct export. (Photo-heavy pages, where files balloon losslessly, are JPG territory.)

Details worth knowing

Pages export in order with zero-padded numbering so they sort correctly everywhere. Higher DPI multiplies pixels — and PNG, being lossless, multiplies size with it; 150 DPI is the sensible default, 200 the detail option. The images contain no selectable text (that’s PDF to text’s job), and rebuilding a PDF from edited images is JPG to PDF in reverse.

Private by design

The renderer is JavaScript in your browser — internal docs and unreleased designs never transit a server on their way to becoming images.

Frequently asked questions

PNG or JPG — which should I convert to?
PNG for pages with sharp text, line art, diagrams, or screenshots — it reproduces every pixel exactly, with no compression halos around letters. JPG for photo-heavy pages where smaller files matter more than pixel-perfection.
Why are the PNG files bigger than my whole PDF?
A PDF stores instructions ("draw this text in this font"); a PNG stores every pixel of the rendered result, losslessly. That fidelity costs bytes — normal and expected, especially at higher DPI.
Will the PNGs have transparent backgrounds?
Pages render on their own background — white for virtually all documents, and genuinely transparent only where the PDF itself has no background painted. Most documents produce solid white-page images.
What resolution should I use?
150 DPI for documentation and web embedding; 200 DPI when text is small or the image will be zoomed. PNG size grows quickly with DPI, so start at 150.
Is anything uploaded?
No — pages render in your browser and never leave your device.
