Convert PDF to BMP in Python

Python API for converting PDF pages to BMP images

Convert PDF to BMP in Python

Aspose.Slides for Python via .NET lets you convert PDF pages to BMP images programmatically. Import the PDF pages into a Presentation by using SlideCollection.add_from_pdf, render each imported slide with Slide.get_image, and save the resulting IImage object in BMP format.

This workflow creates one BMP file for each page in the source PDF. You can test the conversion in your browser or use the Python API in your application.

Install the library from PyPI by using the following command:

Console/Terminal

pip install aspose-slides
