PDF to Images (CDN)

Lightweight PDF-to-image converter that loads libraries from CDN — fast, but needs a connection.

Shipped HTMLCSSJavaScript February 14, 2025

Overview

Lightweight alternative to the offline converter — loads pdf.js from CDN for faster initial page loads. Trade-off: requires an internet connection on first use.

How It Works

Uses CDN-hosted pdf.js to render PDF pages to canvas elements, then exports as images. Simpler than the PWA version but faster to load initially.

Building It

Created as a lighter-weight option for users who don't need offline capability. Based on the same open-source foundation as the offline version.

What's Next

Consider merging with the offline version into a single tool with auto-detection of connection status.
