PDF to JPG

[penquin]

Just wondering if anyone has a simple way to turn a PDF to a JPG file.  Got a lot of PDF files and always have to print than scan and than save as a JPG if I want to get them in Rapid Resizer or anyother

program.  Looking for a one or two click way to open a PDF and same the main page easily as a JPG if possible.  Thanks for any help.

I have photoshop elements (a cheap version of photoshop) and it opens pdfs just fine.  But you can choose how big you want to print something in Adobe pdf, too.

I just tried this online tool and it worked.  Apparently it will only do 1 or 2 pages at a time unless you sign up and pay, but if you're doing single page pdf's, you might be able to keep using it.  :-)

irfanview is a free photo editor and it's got a lot of good stuff. Conversion is as simple as opening a pdf in irfanview, and saving as a jpg.

If you're wanting to do patterns later on, irfanview is good for taking a picture and easily converting to b/w or eliminating the background one shade at a time to make it simpler to manipulate in inkscape or gimp.

if you have Gimp, it will open pdf and export as png, jpg and other file formats.

I agree this is probably the easiest program to do it in and you sure will get better photos than scanning, copying, etc.

I agree Kevin. I have Gimp and I bought a book that's about 2" thick. I can't figure it out. Way too complicated. Irfanview is very easy.
