How to convert PDF to JPG

Convert PDF files to JPG images.

A Portable Document Format (pdf) file is a self-contained cross-platform document. In plain language, it is a file that will look the same on the screen and in print, regardless of what kind of computer or printer someone is using and regardless of what software package was originally used to create it. Although they contain the complete formatting of the original document, including fonts and images, PDF files are highly compressed, allowing complex information to be downloaded efficiently.

JPG is short for JPEG. JEPG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a common image file format, particularly useful in efficient storage of pictures for delivery on web pages. Built into the JPEG file format is a compression scheme that maintains an inverse relationship between image quality and file size. What this means is that the content creator has the option of delivering high quality images that will take a virtual eternity to download, delivering compact files that contain little or no intelligible content, or anything in between. A graphic file format is developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. JPEG images have better picture quality than GIFs, but at the expense of larger file sizes. JPEG files have the extension .jpg.
