How it works

PNG keeps text, lines and diagrams perfectly crisp, with none of the blur JPG can add around letters, which makes it the better choice for slides, charts, screenshots of documents and anything you will zoom into. Each page is rendered with pdf.js, the engine inside Firefox, at the resolution you choose.

At 150 dpi an A4 page becomes about 1240 × 1754 pixels; at 300 dpi about 2480 × 3508. PNG files are larger than JPG, especially for scanned photos; for those, switch the format to JPG on the same page.

Pixel size of a page at each resolution

PNG keeps every pixel, so larger pages and higher resolutions make much larger files than JPG; text-only pages compress well even as PNG.

  • Diagrams for a presentation: 150 dpi is enough for a full-screen slide; use 300 dpi only if you will crop into a small part.
  • Line drawings and floor plans: PNG avoids the grey haze JPG adds around thin black lines.

Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded?

No. The file is read and processed by your browser on your device; nothing is sent to a server. The PDF engine is downloaded from this site the first time you use a tool and then runs on your device.

Are the PNGs transparent?

No. Pages are rendered on white, as they appear in a viewer, because most PDFs rely on a white page behind their content.

PNG or JPG?

PNG for text, line art and anything that must stay sharp; JPG for scanned photos and when file size matters more.

Which resolution should I use?

150 dpi for screens and documents, 300 dpi for printing or zooming into small text, 72 dpi for quick previews.

Can I get the original images inside the PDF instead?

Yes: Extract images from PDF saves every embedded picture at its original size, rather than whole pages.
