ConvertWhat happens when you convert PDF to GIF
- Every page becomes its own GIF image (up to 100 pages), downloadable together as a ZIP. Pick 150 dpi for screens or 300 dpi for print.
- Pages are drawn by Mozilla's open-source pdf.js, loaded once (about 2 MB) and run on your device.
- GIF is limited to 256 colors. Dithering keeps gradients and photos smooth.

Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to convert my files here?
Yes. Conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to a server, so nobody else can see them.
Is it free? Are there limits?
It's completely free, with no sign-up, watermarks or daily limits. The only limit is your device's memory for very large files.
Can I convert many PDF files at once?
Yes. Drop as many files as you like; they're converted one after another and you can download them all as a ZIP.
Will converting PDF to GIF reduce quality?
Pages are drawn fresh at the resolution you pick, so text and vector shapes stay sharp. Use 300 dpi for print-quality images.
What about documents with several pages?
Each page becomes its own image, named with its page number, and you can download them all as a ZIP.
