The formats
PDF and PNG 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 PNG file?
PNG is a lossless image format, so it keeps every pixel exactly as it was saved. It supports transparent backgrounds, which makes it the usual choice for logos, screenshots, and graphics with sharp edges or text. A photo saved as PNG is often several times larger than the same photo as a JPG. It opens in every web browser, Windows Photos, macOS Preview, iPhone and Android galleries, and editors like Photoshop, GIMP, and Figma.
Good to know
What changes when you convert PDF to PNG
- Each page becomes one PNG image. A PDF with several pages downloads as a ZIP file, or you can save pages one by one.
- Text in the images can't be selected or searched, since it's now part of the picture.
- Password-protected PDFs ask for the password before converting.
FAQ
Questions, answered
Is this PDF to PNG converter free?
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 PNG 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 PNG file?
Every web browser, Windows Photos, macOS Preview, iPhone and Android galleries, and editors like Photoshop, GIMP, and Figma.
Is there a file size limit?
There's no upload limit because nothing is uploaded. The practical limit is your device's memory: everyday files are fine, and most computers handle PDFs with hundreds of pages.
