PostScript Point (`72 pt/inch`) to Pixel Rasterization Matrix
PDF coordinates are defined in PostScript points ($1\text{ pt} = 1/72\text{ inch}$). Pixel dimensions scale linearly with target DPI ($\text{px} = \text{pt} \times \text{DPI} / 72$).
| Scale Factor (DPI) | US Letter (612×792 pt) | ISO A4 (595×842 pt) | PNG Size / Page | Target Use Case |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1x Scale (72 DPI) | 612 × 792 px | 595 × 842 px | ~120 KB | Thumbnails & quick web previews |
| 1.5x Scale (108 DPI) | 918 × 1188 px | 893 × 1263 px | ~260 KB | Mobile & tablet document viewers |
| 2x Scale (144 DPI - Retina) | 1224 × 1584 px | 1190 × 1684 px | ~450 KB | Slide decks, OCR, & crisp social sharing |
| 3x Scale (216 DPI - Print) | 1836 × 2376 px | 1785 × 2526 px | ~950 KB | High-resolution print & archival inspection |
Frequently Asked Questions about PDF to Image
Should I choose PNG, JPEG, or WebP when converting PDF pages to images?
Choose **PNG** or **WebP** for text-heavy documents, tables, and line diagrams because JPEG's $8\times 8$ DCT block compression introduces blurry "mosquito noise" ringing artifacts around sharp black typography.
Why does a standard PDF page render at `612 × 792` pixels at `1x` scale?
The PDF specification defines 1 user-space unit as `1/72 inch`. A US Letter page (`8.5 × 11 inches`) therefore measures `8.5 × 72 = 612 pt` by `11 × 72 = 792 pt`. Rendering at `2x` (`144 DPI`) doubles this to `1224 × 1584 px`.
How does the browser render embedded custom PDF fonts accurately without installing them?
Our PDF.js WebAssembly/Canvas engine parses embedded OpenType, TrueType, and Type 1 CFF glyph outlines directly from the PDF's `/FontDescriptor` streams and rasterizes them onto an HTML5 `<canvas>` with sub-pixel anti-aliasing.
What is the maximum number of PDF pages I can convert to images at once?
Pages are rendered sequentially onto a pooled `<canvas>` buffer and released immediately after blob encoding, allowing 100+ page documents to convert without exhausting browser GPU canvas memory.
