What changes when you convert PDF to JPG
- Every page of the PDF is rendered as a sharp image (150 dpi) and saved as JPG. A single-page PDF gives one JPG file.
- A PDF with several pages gives one JPG image per page, delivered together in a ZIP file (up to 20 pages).
- Pages are drawn on a white background, just as they look when printed.
- Text and vector drawings in the PDF become pixels, so the result is a picture, not selectable text. Password-protected PDFs cannot be converted.

When to choose JPG instead of PDF
Choose JPG for photos, social media, email and web pages where small file size matters. Its main limit: it has no transparency, and saving a JPG again and again slowly lowers quality.
Stay with PDF if you need sharing, printing and archiving pictures or scans as documents, one image per page.
