Turn the pages of your PDF into images
Choose JPG or PNG, a resolution and which pages you want. Every page comes out as its own image, at its own size and in its own orientation.

- Load the PDF and pick the format — JPG for pages with photographs, PNG when text and lines have to stay crisp — and a resolution: 96 DPI for the screen, 150 DPI for most uses, 300 DPI if you are going to print.
- Optionally limit the pages —
1-5, or2, 4, 9. Leave it empty to convert the whole document. - Press Convert to images. You can cancel a long conversion at any point, and download the images one by one or as a ZIP.
150 DPI covers almost everything
Each page is rendered at the resolution you chose and then encoded as JPEG or PNG. Higher DPI means a sharper image and a much bigger file — the size grows roughly with the square of the resolution. JPG compresses photographs well; PNG loses nothing, which is what you want for text, lines and screenshots, and it is heavier.
Every page keeps its own size and orientation, including pages the document asks to rotate, and the image has exactly the proportions of the page: nothing is cropped and nothing is stretched.
Every image produced is checked before it is offered to you: a JPG must start with the JPEG signature and end with its closing marker, and a PNG must carry the PNG signature and its final IEND block, so a truncated or empty file is never presented as a successful result.
Works with any kind of page
It does not matter whether the page is text, vector graphics or a scan — what is converted is the rendered page, exactly as it looks.
Very large pages at 300 DPI can exceed what a browser canvas allows, especially on iPhone and iPad. CLEKARA detects that limit and scales down instead of returning a blank image.
The output is a picture. Text inside it is no longer selectable or searchable.
Frequently asked questions
JPG or PNG?
JPG for pages that are mostly photographs: much smaller files. PNG when the page is text, tables, diagrams or a screenshot: it does not lose anything, so nothing looks smudged, at the cost of a bigger file. The quality control only applies to JPG.
Which resolution should I choose?
150 DPI is right for most cases. Use 96 DPI for on-screen previews and 300 DPI only if the image will be printed.
Can I convert only some pages?
Yes. Enter the pages you want, such as 1-5 or 2, 4, 9. Leaving the field empty converts the whole document.
Can I download everything at once?
Yes, there is a ZIP button when there is more than one image.
Can I cancel halfway through?
Yes. Press Cancel and the conversion stops at the current page, releasing the resources it was using.
