# Convert PDF to PNG.

> PDF pages become lossless PNGs — rendered on your device.

Render PDF pages to pixel-perfect PNG images **without the file leaving your browser**. PNG is lossless, so hairline text, diagrams and line art come out exactly as the page draws them — no JPEG artifacts around sharp edges. Pick the DPI, drop a document, and multi-page results arrive as one ZIP.

**No uploads · No ads · Free & open source.**

## How it works

1. Drop files anywhere on the page, click to browse, or paste with Ctrl/⌘ + V.
2. Pick a quality or preset — or set an exact target size and let the tool find it.
3. Compress, compare before/after, and download — individually or as a ZIP.

## When PNG beats JPG for pages

PNG wins whenever the page is drawn rather than photographed: contracts and forms with fine print, wireframes, CAD exports, sheet music, charts. JPEG compression smears exactly those high-contrast edges. If your document is a photo scan, the [PDF to JPG](https://compress-pro.com/pdf-to-jpg) converter produces far smaller files with nothing visible lost.

## Choosing a DPI

| DPI | What you get |
| --- | --- |
| 72 | Screen-size previews — small and fast |
| 150 | Sharp on any display — the sensible default |
| 300 | Print-grade renders that survive heavy zooming |

## Editing the results

Because PNG is lossless, the rendered pages tolerate further work — annotate them, crop them, paste them into slides — without stacking compression artifacts on every save. If the pages end up on a web page afterwards, run them through [Compress PNG](https://compress-pro.com/compress-png) to shrink them losslessly first.

## Frequently asked questions

### PNG or JPG for PDF pages?

PNG is lossless and keeps thin lines, small text and flat colors pixel-perfect — right for diagrams, forms and anything headed into further editing. For photographic scans, JPG is several times smaller at no visible cost.

### What DPI should I pick?

150 DPI is the all-round default — crisp on screens with reasonable files. Use 72 for quick previews and thumbnails, 300 when the images go to print or need deep zooming.

### How do multi-page PDFs download?

Every page renders to its own numbered PNG, and documents with more than one page download as a single ZIP so nothing gets lost or misordered.

### Is it private?

Yes. The document never leaves your browser — nothing is uploaded, and the server only delivers this page. That makes it safe for contracts, invoices, medical records — anything you would not email to a stranger. Want proof? Run one file through, switch your connection off, and run another — it still works.
