The same job as PDF to JPG, done losslessly. Worth it when the page is a diagram, a chart or anything with text in it — JPEG smears the edges of sharp lines, and PNG doesn't.
Using PDF to PNG, step by step
- 01
Drop in a PDF.
- 02
Convert — every page is rendered as its own PNG.
- 03
Download the image, or a ZIP when the PDF had more than one page.
What people use it for
- Take a diagram or chart into a slide without the edges going fuzzy.
- Keep screenshots and line art crisp for documentation.
- Get an image with no compression artefacts, for print or further editing.
What goes in, and where it goes
- What it accepts
- One PDF at a time. Password-protected files are refused — unlock the PDF first.
- What you get back
- One PNG per page, rendered at twice the page's natural size: a single image, or a ZIP named page-01.png, page-02.png… when there are several. Expect files several times larger than the same pages as JPG — that is what lossless costs.
- Where your file is processed
- PDF to PNG runs in your browser. Pages are rendered in this tab, using a copy of the PDF renderer served from PDFBull itself rather than fetched from anyone else. Nothing is uploaded, and nothing is kept once you close the tab.
Common questions
Should I use PNG or JPG?
PNG for anything with text, lines or flat colour — diagrams, charts, screenshots — because it keeps edges exactly as they were. JPG for photographs and scans, where the losses don't show and the files are far smaller.
Why are the files so much bigger?
PNG never throws anything away, so a page of text is routinely three to five times the size of the same page as a JPG. That's the trade the format exists to make.
Will the background be transparent?
No. PDF pages have a white background and it is rendered as it appears. PNG supports transparency, but there is none in the source to preserve.
Will the text still be selectable?
No. Converting to an image turns each page into a picture, so the text becomes part of it and can't be selected or searched.
