Convert one PDF page to PNG

The page is drawn on white, and the image is checked before the download appears.

Save your download before you leave the page — it exists only in this tab.

How do I convert a PDF page to PNG?

  1. Choose one PDF of up to 150 MiB and 200 pages, enter the page number (the first page is 1) and choose the longest edge of the image, from 256 to 4,096 pixels.

  2. Select Convert page to PNG; PNG is lossless, so there is no quality to set. If the PDF asks for a password, enter it and try again.

  3. Check the pixel size and file size shown, then download the PNG (page 3 is saved as xenmark-pdf-page-0003.png) before resetting.

How is the PNG made from the PDF?

PDF to PNG turns one page of a PDF into a lossless PNG image without uploading the PDF. Choose the page and the size of the longest edge, then download the image, drawn on a white background.

The page is drawn in your browser onto a white canvas no larger than the size you chose, and the browser saves that canvas as a PNG. Xenmark then checks that the file is a real PNG of the expected width and height, no larger than 64 MiB, before the download appears. When the aim is to comment on a drawing rather than to picture it, Xenmark's PDF markup and drawing review work on the PDF itself, in the browser.

How Xenmark makes it easy to save a PDF page as a PNG

  • One page, drawn at the pixel size set

    Choose a page and a longest edge between 256 and 4,096 pixels. The page is scaled to fit without stretching, within an eight-million-pixel canvas.

  • Nothing leaves your machine

    Nothing is uploaded. Files are read in this tab and processed in memory, with no account and no server for them to go to.

  • Lossless, so there is no quality slider

    PNG keeps every rendered pixel as drawn, so there is no lossy setting to tune. Fine lines and small text stay as crisp as the chosen size allows.

  • Header and size read back before download

    Before a download link appears, the file is checked to be a real PNG with the width and height that were drawn.

  • A plain white sheet behind every drawing

    The page is rendered onto a fixed white background, so areas the PDF leaves transparent come out white rather than black or see-through.

  • Nothing to install

    It runs in the browser you already have. There is no plug-in, no desktop application and no sign-up to get through first.

Limitations

What this tool does not do, stated up front.

  • One page becomes one PNG per run. There is no whole-document mode and no archive output; a multi-page set means selecting Reset tool and choosing the PDF again for each page you need.

  • The page is drawn on a white background. Comments, markups and form-field entries are not drawn into the image, and the PNG has no selectable text, vector lines or transparency.

  • A PDF whose security settings forbid copying its content is refused. A font the renderer cannot load, a decoder it does not carry or an image past its pixel limit is left out of the PNG rather than guessed, so a clean-looking export is not proof that every element of the page was drawn.

Questions

How high a resolution can the PNG be?

Up to 4,096 pixels on the longest edge. You choose a size from 256 to 4,096 pixels, and the page is kept within 8 million pixels in total, which can reduce the largest sizes.

Why is there no PNG quality slider?

Because PNG is lossless: every pixel is saved exactly as drawn, so there is no quality setting to trade against file size. To make the file smaller, choose a smaller output size.

Can PDF to PNG keep a transparent background?

No. The page is always drawn on white, so areas the PDF leaves transparent come out white rather than see-through or black.

Why did Xenmark build a free PDF-to-PNG converter?

Xenmark AS is a Norwegian software company building browser-based drawing review tools for owners, consultants, operators and other teams that receive and review technical drawings. Those teams handle PDFs every day, and not every file should be sent to a website just to merge, split or check it — a tender document, a client’s drawing set, a revision that is not released yet. So these everyday tools are free and run entirely in your browser: no account, no upload step, and no server ever receives the file. You can check that yourself — open your browser’s network tab, render a page to PNG, and watch nothing leave. What this tool cannot do is listed under Limitations above.

Beyond the free tools

Reviewing the drawings, not just handling the files?

Xenmark is affordable PDF markup and structured drawing review in the browser. Invite reviewers, pin numbered comments on the sheet, track every one by author and status, and export a clean PDF and Excel when the review is done. Unlike these tools, a review is shared, so its drawings are uploaded to your Xenmark project.

Free forever plan. Reviewers you invite never pay.
