PDF to GIF

Convert every page of a PDF into a GIF image.

PDF to GIF converts every page of a PDF into a GIF image. GIF is supported almost everywhere, so it is useful when a program or website only accepts that format.

Each page becomes its own GIF picture. GIF uses a limited number of colors, so photos can look less smooth than in JPG or PNG, while simple graphics and text stay clear. The upload limit is 20 MB.

How to use PDF to GIF

  1. Click the upload field and choose your PDF (up to 20 MB).
  2. Press Generate and wait while the pages are converted.
  3. Download the result.
  4. Open the images to check the quality.

Tips for better results

  • Choose GIF for simple pages with text, diagrams or flat colors. Pages with photos look better as JPG or PNG.
  • Convert only the pages you need from a long document.
  • Keep the PDF if you may need searchable text later.
