Choose JPG or PNG for the right reason
JPG is usually the practical choice for a photographic poster or a file that needs to stay small. PNG can keep text, logos and flat graphics looking crisper, but it often creates a larger download.
If you are unsure, make a 1,600-pixel JPG first. Open it at full size on your phone and check the smallest important text.
Convert one page—or split a longer PDF first
The converter turns every page into an image. If you only need one page from a longer PDF, use the Split PDF tool first to extract that page. Then open the PDF to images tool, choose the shorter file and select the output width. A one-page poster downloads as an image; a multi-page document downloads as a ZIP folder.
The page is rendered inside your browser. The PDF content is not uploaded to London Community IT. The resulting image no longer contains selectable PDF text, links or form controls—it is a picture of the page.
Check the image before publishing
- Read the date, time, address and contact number at full size.
- Look for text cut off near the page edges.
- Confirm that the image is the latest approved version.
- Ask permission before posting identifiable people or private information.
- Send the image to yourself before distributing it to a large group.
Make a smaller version when needed
If the image is too large for a form or slow to share, use the Resize image to KB tool after converting it. Keep the original file as your master and give the smaller copy a clear name such as community-event-whatsapp.jpg.
Avoid repeatedly downloading, editing and recompressing the same JPG. Each round can make small text less clear. Go back to the original PDF when you need a new size.
