Do the PNGs have a transparent background?

No. Pages are rendered on white, matching how the PDF prints. A transparent background would make most documents unreadable on a dark page.

How many pages can I convert at once?

As many as your device's memory allows. Rendering happens page by page, so long documents work — they just take longer at higher resolutions.

PNG keeps hard edges clean, which is what you want for pages that are mostly type, tables or diagrams — no JPG fuzz around the letters.

How it works

This tool runs entirely on your device. Your file is never sent to a server — disconnect from the internet and it still works.

PNG is lossless, so nothing is thrown away. That is exactly why text stays sharp — if size matters more than edge quality, use the JPG tool.
