If no Adobe Acrobat Reader is available or PDFs are to be embedded in websites or shared, it may be necessary to convert PDF to JPG. With file-converter-online.com this is no problem – simply upload the existing .PDF document and in a few seconds the matching JPG image is ready for download.

Converting PDF to JPG – tips and benefits

Many different file formats display their content similarly on the screen, but also differ considerably in their use. While PDF documents are ideal for sharing text that should not be changed, the JPEG format is ideal for sharing images that are directly visible. While it is possible to share PDF documents with platforms such as WhatsApp, Facebook or Instagram, no preview is displayed. Converting PDF to JPG beforehand provides direct visibility.

Convert PDF to JPG easily online

Conversion is easy and requires no additional software with our free online converter. This can convert PDF files directly online. The conversion takes place directly on our servers and does not require a diversion via screenshots. All you have to do is upload the PDF file and your JPG file will be available for download after the conversion. Of course, the whole process also works with multi-page PDF files. In this case, after the PDF to JPG conversion, a ZIP file is available for download in which all PAGES of the PDF file are available as individual JPG files.
Another advantage of this method is that you do not need any special software on your computer. All you need is an internet connection and a browser. Even with a tablet or smartphone, files can be converted from PDF to JPG quickly and easily, even when you are on the move.

Convert directly in Windows:

It may be necessary to convert PDF to JPG, especially if you only have certain data in PDF format and want to change or further process it with an image editing programme, for example. There are several options for conversion: If you have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer, you can use the integrated snapshot function. You then simply select an image area with the mouse, which is then copied to the clipboard. But even without Adobe software, you have tools at hand with Windows to convert PDF to JPG. Simply use the Windows screenshot function, which copies the screen content to the clipboard. The disadvantage of these two methods, however, is that the conversion from PDF to JPG takes a diversion via the graphics card and the screen. The resolution and colour depth are therefore dependent on the settings of your computer. You will also need software that allows you to paste the screenshot or snapshot from the clipboard and save it in JPEG format.

Frequently asked Questions

Conversion is no problem with file-converter-online.com. Simply upload the file, adjust the resolution if necessary (150 dpi is sufficient for most documents) and start the conversion. The JPG file can be downloaded on the next page. If there are several pages, all individual pages are downloaded as a ZIP archive.

Files up to 750MB and approx. 1,000 pages can be converted into individual JPG files free of charge.
JPEG files do not support transparency and are particularly suitable for photos and achieve small file sizes with good quality. If digitally generated content is involved, PNG is usually the better choice in terms of quality and file size. If the PDF document contains transparent areas that should also be retained in the target file, then PNG is the target format of choice.
Yes, this works fully automatically. Multi-page documents are downloaded as a ZIP file with all the individual pages.
It depends on the DPI number! For a normal A4 page (29.7cm x 21cm, corresponding to approx. 11.7" x 8.3"), the following resolutions result:
  • 75 dpi: 877 x 622 px
  • 150 dpi: 1755 x 1245 px
  • 300 dpi:3500 x 2490 px
  • 600 dpi: 7010 x 4960 px
Yes, of course all files are automatically deleted at the latest 2 hours after conversion.
The conversion of normal files (up to approx. 10 MB) only takes a few seconds. For files with several hundred megabytes, the conversion can take several minutes, but is indicated by a progress bar.
Yes, with file-converter-online.com the conversion from PDF to JPG is no problem even without an app. All you need is an internet connection.
With file-converter-online.com the conversion from PDF to JPG in high resolution is no problem. If 600 dpi is selected, you will receive a JPG with a resolution of approx. 7000 x 5000 pixels (corresponding to approx. 35 MP) for normal A4 documents and approx. 3500 x 2500 pixels (approx. 8 MP) with 300 dpi.
From 150 dpi, the display of fonts in normal sizes and graphics will be sufficiently sharp. For very intricate graphics, small fonts and photos, at least 300 dpi should be selected, especially if the JPG is still to be printed. Please note that only vector graphics and fonts can be scaled accordingly (= displayed in the selected resolution). Embedded images/photos cannot be scaled higher than contained in the PDF.
It is best to convert the PDF to JPG beforehand. As of 2026, Facebook and Instagram cannot yet create a preview image from PDF files. It is therefore necessary to convert the PDF into a JPG image beforehand, e.g. with file-converter-online.com simply in the browser.
WhatsApp can of course send PDF files, but no preview image is displayed. If the PDF document is to be shown with a preview image in the chat, the PDF must first be converted to a JPG or PNG. This allows the recipient or group to see the image directly in the chat.
