Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert a PDF to JPG for free?
Upload your PDF using the tool above, select JPG as the format and your preferred DPI, then click Convert. You can preview every page and download them individually or all at once as a ZIP — completely free, no signup required.
What DPI should I use when converting PDF to JPG?
72 DPI is ideal for web and email use — fast to generate, small file sizes. 150 DPI (Standard) is a great all-around choice for on-screen viewing and presentations. 300 DPI is best for printing — it produces sharp, publication-quality images but larger file sizes.
Should I use JPG or PNG when converting a PDF?
JPG is smaller and best for photographs, scanned documents, and most general use. PNG is lossless — ideal when you need crisp text, diagrams, or transparent backgrounds. Note: PDFs don't have transparency, so PNG and JPG will look nearly identical in most cases.
Can I convert only specific pages of a PDF to JPG?
All pages are converted when you click Convert. After processing, you can download individual pages by clicking the download button on each preview image — no need to download pages you don't want.
Why does high-DPI conversion take longer?
At 300 DPI, each page is rendered at over 4× the pixel area of 72 DPI — a typical A4 page becomes a 2480×3508 pixel image. This is processed in your browser using a canvas, which takes more CPU time for large PDFs. The images themselves are also larger.
Is my PDF safe to convert online with PDFForge?
Completely safe. PDFForge runs the entire conversion in your browser using WebAssembly (PDF.js). Your file is never sent to any server. We have zero access to your documents — everything stays on your device.
Can I convert a scanned PDF to JPG?
Yes. Scanned PDFs are already image-based, so they convert quickly and the output quality closely matches the original scan. Use 150 or 300 DPI to match the scan resolution for the best results.
What is the maximum PDF size I can convert?
Since processing happens in your browser, the limit depends on your device's RAM. Most modern devices handle PDFs up to 100–200MB without issues. Very large PDFs (500+ pages) may slow down your browser at high DPI settings.
