RE: Converting pdf to jpg or gif

Photoshop will open a pdf as a graphic. If your pdf is multiple pages
you'll be asked which page you want to open, so you can open then
individually and crop or stitch as necessary.

Subject: Converting pdf to jpg or gif


Hi:

I have a client that has their restaurants menu saved as a pdf. He 
doesn't want the visitors to his web site to have to download 
Acrobat reader or download the pdf. He wants me to convert the 
menus pdf file into a jpg or gif image and have the image contents 
displayed on the menu web page.

Is there anything you know of that will convert a pdf into an image 
file that I can display on the web? Is that conversion even possible?

BTW, tried contacting the marketing firm that created the pdf. They 
said it is alright to use the pdf as an image, but they didn't know 
how to provide that for us (or the wouldn't provide it!)  Any Clues?

Thanks!

Jim H
