Convert PDF Presentation Slides to Images
Need to share individual slides from a PDF presentation on social media, in messages, or in documents? ImageGates converts each PDF page into a separate high-quality image — perfect for repurposing presentation content across platforms.
Exporting presentation PDFs as slide images
Slides are almost always 16:9 and mostly flat colour with large type, which makes PNG the correct output. Rendering at the display resolution rather than print resolution keeps the file sizes sensible for sharing.
Exact specifications:
- Widescreen slide: 1920×1080 px (16:9)
- Legacy 4:3 deck: 1024×768 px
- Render resolution: 150 DPI for screen, 300 DPI to print handouts
- Format: PNG — flat colour and text compress well and stay sharp
- Naming: zero-pad slide numbers so the order is preserved
What causes a rejected or degraded result:
- Exporting to JPG, which puts artefacts around every headline.
- Rendering at 72 DPI for a handout, which prints soft.
- Losing slide order because filenames sort as 1, 10, 11, 2.
Preparation order that avoids rework:
- Render the PDF to PNG at 1920×1080 for screen use.
- Use 300 DPI when the slides will be printed.
- Check that any embedded photographs still look clean at the chosen resolution.
