Why Convert PDF to JPG?

Converting PDF documents to JPG images makes individual pages easy to share, edit, and post on social media or websites. JPG images are universally compatible and can be inserted into presentations, documents, or shared via messaging apps without specialized PDF readers.

Easy Sharing

JPG images can be shared anywhere without requiring PDF readers or special software. Share individual pages via email, messaging apps, social media, or embed them in websites and presentations. Everyone can view JPG images on any device.

  • Post directly to social media platforms
  • Send via WhatsApp, Telegram, and messaging apps
  • Embed in PowerPoint or Google Slides
  • Share in group chats and forums

Simple Editing

Edit PDF pages as images using any photo editor. Add annotations, crop sections, adjust colors, or combine multiple pages into collages. Image editing tools are more accessible and user-friendly than PDF editors.

  • Edit with Photoshop, GIMP, or mobile apps
  • Crop and resize specific sections
  • Add text, arrows, and highlights
  • Adjust brightness and contrast

Extract Specific Pages

Extract only the pages you need from large PDF documents. Instead of sharing entire documents, save individual pages as images to share relevant information without overwhelming recipients with unnecessary content.

  • Extract single pages from multi-page documents
  • Create image versions of important pages
  • Save specific pages for reference
  • Share only relevant information

Web Publishing

Use JPG images from PDFs on websites and blogs without requiring visitors to download PDF files. Images load faster, display inline, and provide better user experience than embedded PDF viewers.

  • Display document pages on websites
  • Create image galleries from PDF content
  • Faster page loading than PDF embeds
  • Better mobile viewing experience

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! BatchMorph allows you to select specific pages or page ranges to convert. You don't need to convert the entire PDF - just choose the pages you want and we'll extract only those as JPG images.

For web use and social media, 150 DPI is sufficient. For printing or high-quality documents, use 300 DPI. For professional printing with small text, consider 600 DPI. Higher DPI means larger file sizes but better quality.

No, text becomes part of the image and is no longer searchable or selectable. If you need to maintain searchability, keep the original PDF. Use OCR tools to extract text from JPG images if needed later.

You need to unlock password-protected PDFs before conversion. If you have the password, use it to unlock the PDF first. BatchMorph cannot bypass PDF security features for privacy and legal reasons.
