How does PDF.to convert a Word document to a BMP image?
+
PDF.to lays out each page of your Word exactly as it would print, then renders that page to a BMP image. You get one BMP per page, capturing fonts, layout, tables, and figures as a flat picture.
Why turn a Word into a BMP image?
+
A BMP image of a Word page is universally viewable, cannot be reflowed or accidentally edited, and drops straight into a slide, chat, or web page. It is the simplest way to share a Word as a fixed snapshot.
Will the BMP look exactly like my Word?
+
Yes. The Word is rendered through a real layout engine, so the BMP preserves fonts, spacing, headers, columns, and embedded images pixel-for-pixel as the document would appear when opened.
I have a multi-page Word. What do I get?
+
Each page of the Word becomes its own numbered BMP image, and all of them are zipped together for a single download. A one-page Word returns a single BMP.
What resolution is the BMP image?
+
Pages render at 150 DPI by default, which is crisp on screen and good enough to print. Raise the DPI in the options panel for a higher-resolution BMP when you need to zoom in.
Will the text in the BMP stay selectable?
+
No. A BMP is a raster image, so text becomes pixels and is no longer selectable or searchable. If you need selectable text, convert the Word to PDF or to a BMP document with OCR instead.
Does the BMP have a transparent background?
+
Defaŭlte la paĝaj fonoj estas blankaj. Por formatoj, kiuj subtenas alfakanalon, vi povas peti travideblan fonon en la opcioj, tiel ke nur la paĝa enhavo videblas.
Are tables and charts from the Word preserved in the BMP?
+
Yes. Tables, charts, shapes, and inline images are all part of the rendered page, so they appear in the BMP exactly as laid out in the Word.
Can I convert just one page of the Word?
+
Yes. Use the page-range option to pick a single page or a span, and PDF.to renders only those pages to BMP images.
Can I batch-convert several Word files to BMP?
+
Yes. Upload multiple Word documents and each is rendered to its own set of BMP images; everything is bundled into one zip.
Is the Word to BMP conversion free?
+
Yes, within the free size limit. PRO unlocks larger Word uploads, higher DPI output, and parallel rendering.
Does PDF.to keep my Word document?
+
No. The Word and the rendered BMP images are encrypted in transit and deleted automatically a short time after you download them.
