Frequently Asked Questions

What does "scale" mean for quality?
Scale controls the rendering resolution. At 2×, a standard A4 page renders at ~1654×2339 pixels — ideal for high-DPI screens. At 3×, you get near-print quality at ~2481×3508 pixels.
Can I extract a specific page?
Yes — select "Custom Range" and enter the page number(s) you want, like "3" for page 3, "2-6" for pages 2 through 6, or "1,3,7" for specific pages.
Is ZIP download available?
Yes. After generating thumbnails, click "Download All as ZIP" to save all images in a single archive. Individual pages can also be saved separately.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. All PDF rendering is done in your browser using PDF.js. No data is sent to any server.
