PDF2Image

Pdf2image is a simple-to-use tool to help you produce high quality images from any PDF file. Thus, you will be able to insert these images in other applications which do not accept PDF as an input format, such as the Microsoft Office suite of tools.

The output formats supported are JPG, PNG, BMP, and GIF.

The conversion process is simple and straightforward. You have the possibility of customizing the size and quality of the output, by selecting the best possible combination of dots per inch, width and height for each document. If needed, you can also tell the program to crop the pages of the PDF document to avoid unnecessary white margins. Its batch capabilities allow you to convert as many PDF files as needed in just one go. It will automatically generate a separate image file for each page of the original PDF, appending a sequential number at the end of the file’s name for an easier location of specific content.

But the main asset of this application is the high level of quality of the output images. These are significantly clearer, sharper, and offer a more natural appearance than those created by Adobe Acrobat Pro itself. Adobe’s editor requires a high number of dots per inch (thus producing bulkier files) to compete with the quality and the compact size of the images created with pdf2image. This excellent combination of quality and weight is a great advantage for those who need to incorporate these output images to documents intended for the web.
