PDF VS JPG

In many cases, the PDF format is well accepted for the storage and exchange of electronic documents. However, there are certain situations that PDF is either accepted or not accepted at all.

For example, PDF requires an external application like Adobe Acrobat Reader, while JPG does not; browsers have the built-in capability to display images while handling PDF documents requires an external application or plug-in which may or may not be present; an external application comes with the handicap of loading times, plus the rendering of a PDF document happens only after the complete document is downloaded while images can be streamed in; you may have to convert PDF to JPG in order to insert them into a PowerPoint presentation or Microsoft Word document; the publication of documents on a site in the JPG format protects them from being altered due to the lack of fonts on the user's computer…

There are so many situations you will want to change your PDF documents into popular JPG format. Now, let's find the best way to handle these common conversion tasks.

Ways to Convert PDF to JPG

1. Online Convert Websites

Upload your files to some special PDF to JPG conversion websites without installation, and then receive your wanted JPG images after a few minutes or maybe some hours. You can easily find out this kind of websites online like:
