PDF to Image Converter

A fast, lightweight web application that converts PDF files into high-quality images. Upload your PDFs, customize the output format and quality, and download all pages as an easy-to-manage ZIP file—all without uploading anything to a server.

Features

• Local Processing – Everything runs in your browser. No file uploads, no server-side processing, completely private.
• Multiple Formats – Convert to PNG, JPG, or WebP depending on your needs.
• Adjustable Quality – Choose from 5 quality levels (50%, 75%, 100%, 150%, 200%) to balance file size and clarity.
• Batch Download – Export all converted images as a single ZIP file for convenience.
• Page Management – Remove specific pages before downloading if you don't need them all.
• Responsive Design – Works smoothly on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
• No Registration – Completely free, no accounts, no limits.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Make sure you have Node.js (v18 or later) and npm installed.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository-url>
   cd PdfToImage

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Start the development server:

   npm run dev

   The app will open at http://localhost:5173

Usage

1. Upload a PDF – Drag and drop your PDF file or click to browse your computer (max 100MB).
2. Configure Options – Select your preferred image format and quality level.
3. Convert – Click the convert button. Processing happens instantly in your browser.
4. Preview – Scroll through the converted pages using the preview slider.
5. Download – Download all images as a ZIP file or individual pages.

Available Scripts

• npm run dev – Start the development server with hot reload
• npm run build – Create an optimized production build
• npm run preview – Preview the production build locally
• npm run lint – Run ESLint to check code quality

How It Works

The converter uses pdf.js to render each page of your PDF to a canvas, then converts the canvas to your chosen image format. The rendering scale can be increased for higher quality, resulting in sharper images at the cost of larger file sizes.

• Low Quality (50%) – Smallest file sizes, suitable for quick previews
• Medium Quality (75%) – Good balance between size and clarity
• High Quality (100%) – Standard 2x rendering, default choice
• Very High (150%) – Larger files, noticeably sharper
• Ultra High (200%) – Maximum quality, best for detailed documents

All processing happens client-side, so even massive PDFs are converted without uploading to any server. This keeps your files private and speeds up the process.

Browser Support

Works on all modern browsers that support:

• ES6+
• Canvas API
• FileReader API
• Blob API

Performance Tips

• Keep PDF files under 100MB for best conversion speed
• Use PNG for lossless quality, JPG for smaller file sizes, WebP for the best compression
• Higher quality settings produce larger images but with better clarity
• Local processing means no waiting for server responses—just instant conversion
