PDF to PNG Converter - High-Resolution Page Images
Turn PDF pages into crisp PNG or WEBP files without uploading anything. Choose page ranges, set DPI for print or screen, and download a ZIP in seconds with Dexify's client-side rendering.
Explanation
Dexify's PDF to PNG converter focuses on producing clean, portable images for design reviews, QA screenshots, and archival snapshots. The pipeline runs entirely inside the browser using PDF.js and canvas rendering, so sensitive PDFs never leave your device. You choose whether to export lossless PNG or space-efficient WEBP, then Dexify packages everything into a ZIP for quick download and handoff.
Controls are built for precision. DPI (render scale) lets you target print clarity or screen-friendly weights. Page ranges support comma-separated lists (for example 1-3,5) to isolate only the pages you need. Orientation follows the source PDF, and you can select output format per run to match requirements: PNG for transparency and maximum fidelity, WEBP for smaller bundles. Progress indicators and file counts keep you informed while rendering so you know when to grab the ZIP.
Performance depends on document size and your device. Higher DPI and longer ranges increase memory and processing time; on lighter hardware start with moderate DPI and shorter ranges, then rerun at higher quality if needed. Scanned PDFs render as images as well, which is great for visual exports; if you need editable text from scans, pair this tool with an OCR workflow first. Because the process is local, you avoid server queues and maintain privacy across legal, financial, or product-sensitive documents.
After export, you can move the images into downstream flows: drop them in design boards, attach to ticketing systems, or reassemble in Dexify's PNG to PDF tool for a reviewed pack. The interface mirrors other Dexify tools to minimize learning time—same chips, upload area, and status language—so teams can swap between conversion, compression, and protection without friction. The goal is a dependable, repeatable PDF-to-image workflow that balances fidelity, speed, and privacy every time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are my PDFs uploaded to a server?
No. Dexify converts PDFs inside your browser. Files never leave your device - nothing is uploaded or stored on our servers.
What is DPI / Render Scale?
DPI (render scale) controls how many pixels the page is rasterized into. Higher DPI gives more detail (useful for printing) but increases memory and processing time.
Should I choose PNG or WEBP?
PNG is lossless and ideal for images requiring transparency or maximum fidelity. WEBP typically produces smaller files with good quality - choose WEBP if you want smaller download sizes.
How do I convert only specific pages?
Enter a page range like 1-3,5 in the Page range field. The tool will convert only those pages. Leave it empty to convert the whole document.
Will the images be large?
Image size depends on the PDF content, DPI selection and format. Higher DPI and lossless PNG produce larger images. Use WEBP or lower DPI to reduce size.
Does this work with scanned PDFs?
Yes - the tool rasterizes each page as an image. For scanned PDFs this will produce images of the scanned pages. For extracting editable text from scans, use OCR (coming soon).
Is there a page limit?
There is no hard page limit in code, but very large PDFs may fail on low-memory devices. We recommend converting large documents in parts or using lower DPI on weaker machines.
Can I preview images before download?
Currently this tool packages images into a ZIP for download. Preview functionality (thumbnails + lightbox) can be added in the next update.
Do I need internet to convert?
After the page loads (and scripts are cached), the conversion runs entirely offline in your browser - no network required during processing.
