Why PNG

Crisp lines, clean edges

When the page is mostly text, charts or line art, PNG keeps every edge sharp.

  • Lossless, every page.

    PNG stores each pixel exactly, so small text, thin rules and chart labels stay crisp when you zoom.

  • Transparent backgrounds.

    Choose Transparent and areas with nothing drawn stay see-through, handy for logos and icons.

  • Numbered in order.

    Files are named page-01, page-02 and so on, so they sort correctly.

  • Convert on your phone.

    Save a page as a PNG right in your phone’s browser.

  • Same engine as viewers.

    Fonts and vectors render faithfully.

  • Nothing uploaded.

    Your PDF stays on your device.

For design work

Drop PDF art straight into your design

Brand guides, vector logos and diagrams often live in PDFs. Convert the page to PNG and place it on a slide, a web page or a mockup, with empty areas kept transparent instead of a white box when you choose Transparent.

  • Lossless output for text and line art
  • Transparent wherever the page is empty, if you want it
  • White background by default, like the page in a viewer

PDF to PNG questions

Didn't find your answer? Write to us and we'll reply by email.

How do I convert a PDF to PNG?

Add the PDF and press PDF to PNG. You get one PNG per page: a single image for a one-page file, or a ZIP for longer ones.

Can the PNG have a transparent background?

Yes. Pages come out on white by default. Choose Transparent under Background and parts of the page with nothing drawn on them stay see-through, which is useful for logos and diagrams.

PNG or JPG: which should I pick?

PNG for text, charts, logos and line art, where sharp edges matter. JPG for photos and scans, where smaller files matter more.

What resolution are the images?

You choose 72, 150 (the default) or 300 DPI. At 150 DPI a US Letter page becomes about 1275 × 1650 pixels.

Is there a page limit?

Files can be up to 100 MB and 200 pages.

Are my files uploaded?

No. The pages are rendered in your browser, so the PDF never leaves your device.
