Question

pdf to jpeg conversion quality

Just purchased PDF Pack for the purpose of converting a pdf file to jpeg.  After selecting Image Format: *.jpg, there is a slider bar to further select between low, med, and high image quality.  However, regardless of which image quality I select it comes out the same poor quality (low) and image size.   Tech support rep said there is no way to save it as high quality.  So why then the option to select high quality?

      Hi belle_dujour,

       

      Thank you for reaching out, and sorry about the delay in response.

       

      Please provide the Acrobat and OS versions in use. Also, could you share some sample files so that we can replicate the behavior on our end?

      It would be helpful if you could share the screen recording of how it appears when you try to convert it to an image file. We will look into this.

       

      Thanks,

      Meenakshi

          Hi Meenakshi,
          this link is not working. You locked my account (Petr231766714y2e) on this forum? Here is your example of it not working. It obviously hasn't worked for many years. I pay for the PDF pack precisely because of this function, but it does not work. I have already solved it many times both through this forum and several times by phone with your support. And now you will block my account? I just want the features I'm paying for... All files are still the same no matter what quality I choose. Please fix it already.

            rrk, would Photoshop be the area that you wish to open the pdf in? We are not sure just where you wish to open the image so you need to give us the path you are seeking. Thus we can move this to the correct forum...

            After signing up for the PDF Pack I received an e-mail which contained a link, "Use PDF Pack now." That opened up "Adobe PDF Services," from which I selected "Export PDF," and opened the PDF file. From there I selected: convert to image, jpg format. Then I selected image quality: high, but the quality of the converted image was poor. Then I compared images saved as Low and High quality and found them to be the same in quality (poor) and identical file sizes. So it would seem that there is a potential bug in this Adobe product.

            I do have Adobe Photo Shop Elements 12, and found that I was able to open a pdf file and save it as .jpg in a high image quality that looked good. So it seems I had the capability to accomplish what I wanted using my Photo Shop application, and did not need the PDF pack after all.

              So glad that this solved your issue. Thought that some format of Photoshop should solve this. Thank you for posting this!


              The issue was not "solved."  They had to use a completely different, and very expensive, application to work around the issue.  There is no reason one should need a very expensive, very complicated image editor, Photoshop, to perform a basic file conversion.  It's maddening. 

              Adobe Acrobat has the option to convert a PDF to an image (JPG, PNG or TIFF), but the resulting conversion is terribly poor quality, no matter if you pick Max or Low quality.  The result is the same exact low quality reproduction.  I agree with the orignal poster, this is a problem with Acrobat.  For the price of the subscription, it should just work.  Four years after this post was made, and I'm very annoyed this is still a "feature."
