Learn how to convert PDFs to JPGs on a Mac.
It’s easier than you think to change a PDF file into the JPG (or JPEG) file format. Discover new ways to streamline your conversion workflow.
How to convert PDFs into different image formats.
- Export your PDF as a JPG image using a PDF editor like Adobe Acrobat.
- Drag and drop your file into the Adobe Acrobat online PDF-to-JPG converter.
- Use Acrobat to edit, reorganise and compress PDFs, before converting.
Change doesn’t have to be hard.
Despite the benefits of the PDF file format, sometimes you need a different format for a different job. If you want to set aside a specific page from a long PDF document, saving it as a high-resolution image file helps you to keep the content you want without the rest of the file. This is especially useful if you want to share a single page from a PDF on social media where you can only upload image files.
If you want to upload a PDF page to the web, saving it as a JPG or PNG file will preserve the image quality of the original. If you want to share a page with someone else quickly, saving it as a JPG file can make it easier to share than a whole PDF document.
How do you change the format of a picture on a Mac?
- Use the Finder to open your PDF in Acrobat, then select File.
- From the drop-down menu, select Export to › Image.
- Choose the image format you want to export your PDF as, such as JPG.
- Click Export.
- Select Save As and rename your newly converted file.
