How to handle it
- Upload the PDF and choose JPG, PNG, or WebP output.
- Download the image output and check page order and readability.
- Use the image copy for the preview while keeping the original PDF.
Before you submit
- Image output is not editable text.
- Choose PNG for small text or UI screenshots that must stay crisp.
- Keep the PDF as the source of truth for printing or official sharing.
Choose the right output
Use JPG for lightweight previews and photo-heavy PDF pages.
Use PNG when text, UI details, or screenshots need sharper edges.
Use WebP when the images will be published on a modern website.
