How to Convert PDF to JPEG

Python developers can easily load & convert PDF files to JPEG in just a few lines of code.

  1. Open a PDF document using the document_open function, which takes the file name as an argument and returns a Document object.
  2. Get the pages of the document using the document_get_pages function, which takes a Document object as an argument and returns a PageCollection object.
  3. Get the desired page of the document using the page_collection_get_page function, which takes a PageCollection object and an index as arguments and returns a Page object.
  4. Create a Resolution object using the resolution_create function, which takes the resolution value in dots per inch (DPI) as an argument.
  5. Create a JpegDevice object using the jpeg_device_create_from_width_height_resolution function, which takes the width, height and resolution values as arguments. This object can convert PDF pages to JPEG images with the specified parameters.
  6. Save the desired page of the document as a JPEG image using the jpeg_device_save_page_to_file function, which takes a JpegDevice object, a Page object and a file name as arguments.
  7. Close the handles of the JpegDevice and the Document objects using the close_handle function, which takes an object as an argument and releases its resources.

Here is an example that demonstrates how to convert PDF to JPEG in Python. You can follow these easy steps to convert your PDF file to JPEG format. First, upload your PDF file and then simply save it as a JPEG file. You can use fully qualified filenames for both PDF reading and JPEG writing. The output JPEG content and formatting will be identical to the original PDF document.
