How does PDF.to convert a Word document to a GIF image?
+
PDF.to lays out each page of your Word exactly as it would print, then renders that page to a GIF image. You get one GIF per page, capturing fonts, layout, tables, and figures as a flat picture.
Why turn a Word into a GIF image?
+
A GIF 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 GIF look exactly like my Word?
+
Yes. The Word is rendered through a real layout engine, so the GIF 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 GIF image, and all of them are zipped together for a single download. A one-page Word returns a single GIF.
What resolution is the GIF 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 GIF when you need to zoom in.
Will the text in the GIF stay selectable?
+
No. A GIF 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 GIF document with OCR instead.
Does the GIF have a transparent background?
+
Подразум› ијевано позадине страница исцртавају као чврсто беле. За формате који подржавају алфа канал можете затражити провидну позадину у опцијама тако да само садржај странице приказује.
Are tables and charts from the Word preserved in the GIF?
+
Yes. Tables, charts, shapes, and inline images are all part of the rendered page, so they appear in the GIF 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 GIF images.
Can I batch-convert several Word files to GIF?
+
Yes. Upload multiple Word documents and each is rendered to its own set of GIF images; everything is bundled into one zip.
Is the Word to GIF 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 GIF images are encrypted in transit and deleted automatically a short time after you download them.
