When PNG is the right choice
PNG is a lossless format: every pixel of the rendered page is kept exactly, with no compression artifacts around text and line art. That makes it the format to choose when a page will be cropped, edited, or examined closely — screenshots for documentation, diagrams, forms, and anything with fine text. If you just need small shareable images, JPG conversion produces noticeably lighter files.
How to convert PDF to PNG step by step
- 1
Open the PDF to PNG tool
Go to the FileNova PDF to PNG tool.
- 2
Upload your PDF
Drag in the document — up to 50 MB. PNG output stays lossless at every resolution.
- 3
Choose the resolution
Standard renders at 150 DPI, High at 200 DPI, and Maximum at 300 DPI. Higher DPI means more pixels per page — and a larger file.
- 4
Convert
Each page becomes a crisp PNG image, in the same order as the document.
- 5
Download
Save a single page image, or download a ZIP archive with every page (page-1.png, page-2.png, …) for multi-page documents.
Picking the right DPI
A useful rule of thumb: 150 DPI for screens and quick previews, 200 DPI for pages people will actually read on a laptop or tablet, 300 DPI when the image may be printed or zoomed. Doubling the DPI roughly quadruples the pixel count, so a 300 DPI export of a long document can get heavy — start at High if you are unsure.
