Why convert PDF to PNG?

PDF (Portable Document Format) — Adobe's vector and raster document format. PixelCrush extracts each page as an individual image for conversion.

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) — Lossless format created in 1996 to replace GIF. Ideal for images with transparency, screenshots, logos, and illustrations.

Converting PDF to PNG typically reduces file size while preserving a visual quality close to the original. Beware: moving from a lossy format to a lossless one does not improve quality — it can actually inflate file size.
