How to convert a PDF to PNG
- Select Choose file or drop your PDF on the box.
- Choose a Resolution: 72, 150 or 300 DPI.
- Turn on Transparent background if you want see-through areas instead of white.
- Optionally list pages in Pages, like
1-3, 5. Empty means every page. - Select Download. You get a PNG for one page, or a ZIP for several.
What you get
Lossless PNG images with exactly the pixels that the PDF page shows at your chosen resolution. Text edges stay sharp, thin lines stay clean and colors are unchanged. PNG files are bigger than JPGs, especially for photographic pages and 300 DPI scans, so choose 150 DPI unless you need more detail.
Transparent backgrounds
Most PDFs do not paint a background, so with the option on, the empty parts of the page become transparent. That helps when you want to place a chart, a signature or a logo from a PDF on top of another picture. Pages that include a filled white rectangle, which is common for scans and slides, stay white because the white is part of the content.
Good uses
Turning diagrams and charts into images for slides, taking crisp screenshots of a PDF page, preparing artwork for a website, or saving a signature that came as a PDF.
Tips
- Smaller files for photo-heavy pages: use PDF to JPG.
- Resize the result for a specific use with the image resizer.
- Build a PDF again from PNG files using PNG to PDF.
- Need the words from the page? PDF to text copies them out.
The pages are drawn by the pdf.js library on your device. Pages larger than 50 megapixels are scaled down to avoid crashes, and the page count is shown when the job is ready. Your file is never uploaded.
