Hi all,

I've been getting several client requests for some of my documents to be in .jpg format rather than pdf.

I've been printing my document, then scanning it. My scanner is not the best and I get a fair bit of grey in it.

Does anyone have a method to convert a document directly to a .jpg file?

I believe that in Acrobat Professional, you have the option to save as a jpg

I never heard of this before so I checked it. Yes, Acrobat Pro (I have V8) will output to jpg. If you have multiple pages in the document it will put each page in a separate jpg file.

Hmmm, what about people who don't have Acrobat Pro?

Us e the software that came with the scanner to save the document as an image. It will probably save it as a .TIF. Use Photoshop or other imaging software to save it as a .JPG

Or just find a torrent & download a cracked version of Acrobat

Hi Twister,

That software is pretty good. Problem is that I'm too cheap to pay for it.

Thanks for that reference however. I have it downloaded.

I think I found an alternative. I print to fax, it creates a fax image, show the image before sending and save it as a jpeg file.

It's not immaculate, but it does the job.

Thanks for all your input!

La la land
Sourceforge.com

www.sourceforge.net

This place usually has linux packages but at the same time most of these programs are CROSSPLATFORM. Meaning they will run in WINDOWS

So if you ever need any free utility with no cost this is the place to go. THe server will detect your OS automatically and will try to send you to the Windows page of the program but double check. So what do you need once you get there. well these

PDFCreator = pdfcreator

Virtual Image Printer driver = pdf to jpg

PDFizer = pdf converter

I have PDFCreator and it works great in MS WINdows for me. Before you download make sure you get the 12meg file. IT will have the dependicies or extra drivers to run it in WIN. ALWAYS make sure you get the windows version and full package so you don't have to worry what else do you need?

Any more requests?

Could you take a screen capture of the document and save it as a .jpg in Microsoft Paint? I tried it for a single page Word document with #10 font and it came out okay.

Bit of a hassle for multipage documents though.
Did you type
"screen capture"
in sourceforge.net?

of course not. Right?
