How to Convert a PDF in 3 Steps

1

Add your PDF files.

Drag one or more PDFs onto the box, or click to choose them. Each file can be up to 500 MB, and the converter opens as soon as they load.

2

Pick a format for each file.

Choose Compressed PDF, JPG, JPEG or Text (.txt) next to each PDF. On a computer, the side panel also sets the compression level and JPG quality.

3

Convert and download.

Click Convert All. Files run one after another and show Done with their new size. Save each one, or click Download All for a single ZIP.

Your PDFs Stay on Your Device

PDFs are opened and converted inside this browser tab, and results save straight to your downloads. There is no account to create and no watermark on the output.

One ZIP for the Whole Batch

Each finished file shows Done with its new size and a Download button. Download All saves a single file directly, or packs several results into pdf-converter.zip.

Shrink PDFs at Three Levels

Compressed PDF redraws each page as an image. Low keeps the most detail and High makes the smallest file. Text can't be selected afterward. If the result would be bigger, you get the original back.

Extract PDF Text to TXT

Text (.txt) copies the words stored in the PDF into a plain UTF-8 file, with a blank line between pages. Scanned pages without a text layer come out empty.

Frequently Asked Questions About the PDF Converter

Answers about output formats, compression levels, JPG pages, text files and limits.

How do I convert a PDF for free?

Drop one or more PDFs on the box above, choose Compressed PDF, JPG, JPEG or Text (.txt) next to each file, then click Convert All. When a file shows Done, download it, or grab the whole batch with Download All. It costs nothing and needs no account.

What can this PDF converter turn a PDF into?

Three things: a smaller PDF, a JPG picture of every page, or a plain text (.txt) file. JPG and JPEG give the same image with a different file ending. The converter only takes PDF files in, so use Image to PDF to go the other way.

Can I convert a PDF to Word or Excel?

Not with this tool. It can't make DOCX or XLSX files. The closest option is Text (.txt), which keeps the words but drops fonts, tables, columns and pictures. You can paste that text into Word or a spreadsheet and format it there.

What do the Low, Medium and High compression levels do?

Each level redraws the pages as JPEG pictures, so text can't be selected afterward. Low keeps the most detail, Medium is the default, and High makes the smallest file. For a target file size or selectable text, use the PDF Compressor.

What size are the JPG images made from each page?

Pages are drawn at about 150 DPI, so an A4 page becomes roughly 1238 × 1751 pixels and a US Letter page 1273 × 1647. Quality is 85 unless you move the slider, which runs from 40 to 100. For PNG files or 300 DPI, use PDF to Image instead.

Why is my TXT file empty or jumbled?

The text option only copies words that are stored in the PDF. A scanned page is just a picture, so it gives nothing. For scans, save the pages as JPG here, then read them with Image to Text. Words on a page are joined with spaces, so columns and tables run together.

Can I convert multiple PDF files at once?

Yes. Add as many PDFs as you like, each up to 500 MB, and give each one its own format. They convert one after another. Download All packs the results into one ZIP. A multi-page JPG result is already a ZIP, so it sits inside as a ZIP of its own.

Is this PDF converter free, and is there a limit?

Yes, it's free, with no account, no daily cap and no watermark. The only hard limit is 500 MB per PDF. Very long or image-heavy PDFs need a lot of memory while they convert, so they can fail on phones and older computers.

Why does my PDF show Error?

A red Error badge usually means the PDF needs a password to open, or the file is damaged. The reason isn't shown yet. If you know the password, remove it with our PDF password remover, then add the file again. The other PDFs in the batch keep converting either way.

Can I use this PDF converter on my phone?

Yes. Add your PDFs, pick a format in each file's menu, then tap the convert button in the top bar. On screens narrower than 1024 pixels the settings panel is hidden, so compression stays at Medium and JPG quality at 85.

Is it safe to convert private PDFs with this tool?

Yes. Your PDFs are read and converted inside this browser tab and are not sent to our servers. The page fetches a PDF reading script from cdnjs, a public file host, and Google Analytics counts page visits. Neither one receives your files, their names or their text.
