Convert PDF to WebP images
Export PDF pages as WebP for smaller web-friendly images (ZIP).
Convert PDF to WebP (complete guide)
WebP is a modern image format that often delivers smaller files than JPG or PNG at similar visual quality. It’s ideal when your goal is web delivery: fast page loads, lightweight previews, and smaller ZIP downloads. If you need maximum compatibility (older apps), use PDF to JPG or PDF to PNG.
When to choose WebP
- Web previews: embed images on websites, docs, or chat apps that support WebP.
- Smaller downloads: reduce ZIP size compared to PNG.
- Mixed content: text + images often look good at smaller sizes than JPG.
Suggested workflow
- If pages are sideways, rotate first with Rotate PDF.
- If you only need a few pages, use Extract pages first.
- Convert PDF → WebP and download the ZIP.
- Spot-check a few output images at 100% zoom.
WebP vs JPG vs PNG
- WebP: smaller web-friendly output.
- JPG: widely compatible; best for photos.
- PNG: lossless; best for crisp text/diagrams; usually largest.
Privacy & retention
Files are stored temporarily for processing and deleted on scheduled cleanup (typically within 12 hours).
Troubleshooting
- My app can’t open WebP: use JPG or PNG instead.
- Text looks soft: use PNG for text-heavy pages.
- Encrypted PDF: unlock first with Unlock PDF.
How it works
- Upload a PDF.
- Download WebP images (ZIP).
