Frequently asked questions

PNG is lossless, so text and edges stay crisp — ideal for screenshots. JPG files are smaller but can show artifacts around sharp text.

Common problems and fixes

  • The output has empty or missing text

    Why: the source pages were a scan or an image — there is no text layer to convert.

    Fix: run the OCR PDF tool on the file first to add a searchable text layer, then convert again.

  • Tables and columns come out jumbled

    Why: a PDF stores positions on a page, not rows and cells, so designed layouts are reconstructed approximately.

    Fix: for data you need in a spreadsheet, use the Extract Tables tool instead — it is built for that job.

  • Fonts look slightly different in the converted file

    Why: a PDF embeds glyph shapes rather than font families, so the closest available font is substituted.

    Fix: expect near-identical text flow rather than pixel-perfect type; fix fonts in the target app if exactness matters.

Who uses PDF to PNG?

  • Students and researchers — turning readings, papers and handouts into editable notes they can annotate and quote from.
  • Office teams — reusing content from reports and statements without retyping it by hand.
  • Anyone handling confidential documents — the conversion runs in your browser, so contracts and financial files never leave your device.
