# Convert PDF to PNG

Turn PDF pages into PNG images with crisp, lossless edges — ideal for text, diagrams and slides. **Nothing is uploaded.**

**PDF to PNG** is an interactive tool that runs in a web browser at https://spirikle.com/tools/pdf-to-png/. It processes files on the visitor's own device; nothing is uploaded. There is nothing to call from Markdown — open the page to use it.

## How to convert PDF to PNG

### 1. Add your PDF

Drop the PDF onto the box above, or choose it from your device.

### 2. Pick the resolution

Choose 72, 150 or 300 DPI. Leave Pages empty to convert every page, or type the ones you want.

### 3. Convert and download

Press Convert to PNG and download the images one by one or as a ZIP.

## PNG or JPG?

PNG is lossless: every pixel is kept exactly, so text, charts and screenshots stay razor-sharp with no smudgy edges. The trade-off is size — a PNG of a page is often several times larger than a JPG.

For a page that is a photo or a scan, [PDF to JPG](/tools/pdf-to-jpg/) usually gives a much smaller file that looks the same.

## Questions

### Is the background transparent?

No — pages are drawn on white, the way a PDF reader shows them.

### Which resolution should I pick?

150 DPI suits screens and documents. Use 300 DPI if you will print the image or need to zoom into small text.

### Are my PDFs uploaded anywhere?

No. The tool runs entirely in your web browser: your files are opened and processed on your own phone or computer, and nothing is sent to a server — not to ours, not to anyone else's. The page is even set up so the browser itself blocks it from sending data elsewhere. Close the tab and nothing is left behind.

### Is it really free?

Yes, completely. There is no sign-up, no daily limit, no watermark and no paid version of this tool. Because the work happens on your own device rather than on our servers, it costs us nothing to run, so there is nothing to charge for.
