How to Convert a PDF to JPG or PNG on iPhone
Updated
Quick answer
Open the PDF in PDF Slayer, choose PDF to Images, select the pages you want, and export them as high-resolution JPG or PNG files. Save to Photos or Files — the conversion runs entirely on your iPhone.
Some destinations just want an image: a web form that only accepts JPG, a chat where a picture previews better than an attachment, a slide that needs one page of a report. Converting PDF pages to images solves it.
Screenshotting a PDF works in a pinch but produces low-resolution crops with status bars to trim. A real PDF-to-image export gives you the full page at high resolution.

JPG is smaller and ideal for sharing pages with photos or general content. PNG is lossless and keeps sharp text and line art perfectly crisp — pick it for documents you will zoom into or print.
Going the other direction — turning images back into a document — is the Images to PDF tool, which pairs naturally with this one.
Frequently asked questions
Can I convert all pages of a PDF to images at once?
Yes. Select the whole document and every page is exported as its own image file.
What resolution are the exported images?
Pages export as high-resolution images suitable for sharing, zooming, and printing.
JPG or PNG — which is better for text documents?
PNG keeps text edges perfectly sharp because it is lossless; JPG produces smaller files and is fine for most sharing.
Is the PDF uploaded to convert it?
No. The export runs entirely on your device, even in airplane mode.
