How to Save a PDF as a JPEG for Free Online and Offline

Many online websites or PDF converter software can convert PDF to an image in the field. However, I tried it out and found a problem with most of the conversion tools: the clarity of the PDF is lost after being converted into an image, and the content is blurred as well. And those who can convert in high quality, like Adobe, are not designed for free. If you are looking for a free tool that can turn a PDF into a JPEG/JPG file without losing the formatting and clarity of the original file, you are in the right place. Three free solutions on how to save a PDF as a JPEG are available here, including offline and online ways. I hope this guide is helpful to you.

PDF vs. JPEG 

The PDF file is often used in the daily office. It is popular among office workers in various industries. The JPEG file (same as JPG) is also one of the most compatible image files. Saving a PDF as a JPEG can not only save storage space on a PC but also make it more convenient to transmit. Convert the integrated PDF to a long JPEG file; then you can easily save or send it to others. Moreover, as the JPEG file is a scanned image type, the content of the picture is not easy to be modified or copied, so its information security is higher.

✅ Convert PDF to JPEG in Microsoft Word

With Microsoft Word, you don’t have to rely on extra software to save a PDF as a JPEG picture. But in Microsoft Word, you need to convert PDF pages to images one by one. In addition, depending on the PDF file’s layout and content, Word’s recognition effect is also different. Sometimes the PDF is converted into an editable form and is directly recognized as a picture. You can have a trial if it acknowledges your PDF for the image.

Step1. Launch Microsoft Word. Click File > Open, then select a PDF file. What you need to pay attention to is that if there are too many pictures in the PDF, Microsoft Word may not be able to recognize the file well.
