What this tool does

What this tool does

Render every PDF page as a lossless PNG image for sharp text, diagrams, and page screenshots.

  • Create lossless screenshots of PDF diagrams, forms, or typography.

Detailed step-by-step guide

  1. Choose the PDF whose pages should become PNG files.
  2. Select the rendering scale or quality available. Higher scale produces larger images and uses more device memory.
  3. Render each page independently with PDF.js and encode the completed page canvas as PNG.
  4. Inspect PNG files from several parts of the document, especially pages containing scans, diagrams, or uncommon fonts.

What this tool can do

  • One PNG is produced for each page.
  • Lossless PNG preserves sharp edges better than JPEG.
  • Uses PDF.js font, CMap, color-profile, and supported WASM decoding resources.

Tips for this tool

  • Choose PNG for line art and small text.
  • Large scanned books can create very large ZIP files because PNG compression is lossless.

Privacy and processing

While using PDF to PNG, this published version performs the supported document operation in your browser and does not send the document contents to an external conversion engine. Anonymous usage counters may record activity, not the document contents.

Important limitations

  • PNG files are usually larger than JPG for photographic pages.
  • Interactive PDF elements and selectable text become pixels.
