The formats

PDF and JPG at a glance

  • What is a PDF file?

    PDF is the standard format for sharing documents that should look the same everywhere. It fixes the layout, fonts, and images of every page, which is great for reading and printing but makes editing hard. A PDF can contain real text or only scanned pictures of pages. It opens in every browser, Adobe Acrobat Reader, macOS Preview, Microsoft Edge on Windows, phones, and Google Drive.

  • What is a JPG file?

    JPG (also written JPEG) is the most common format for photos. Its lossy compression discards detail your eye is unlikely to notice, which keeps files small, and you can trade size for quality when you save. It has no transparency, and saving the same image again and again slowly adds visible artifacts. It opens in practically everything: browsers, phones, cameras, Windows Photos, macOS Preview, Word and Google Docs, every photo editor, and every website that accepts uploads.

  • Password-protected PDFs ask for the password before converting.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Yes. It's completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark, and no limit on how many files you convert. It costs Ethical Tube nothing to run, because the conversion happens on your own device rather than on a server.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion runs inside your browser with pdf-lib and Mozilla's pdf.js, so your files never leave your device. Once the page has loaded, it even works offline.

Can I convert several PDF files at once?

Yes. Add as many as you like. They're converted one after another, and you can download each JPG file as soon as it's ready or all of them in one ZIP file.

Does it work on iPhone, Android, Mac, and Windows?

Yes. It works in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari, on computers and phones.

What can open a JPG file?

Practically everything: browsers, phones, cameras, Windows Photos, macOS Preview, Word and Google Docs, every photo editor, and every website that accepts uploads.
