About converting PDF to GIF

Going from PDF to GIF takes a couple of clicks: drop the file in, download the result. Drop in your PDF file (a .pdf) and download a ready-to-use GIF file (a .gif) — no software to install, no account to create, and no watermark on the output.

What is PDF?

PDF is the universal document format. Wrapping an image in a PDF makes it easy to share, print and view identically on any device.

What is GIF?

GIF is limited to 256 colours per frame, but it persists for one reason: simple, autoplaying, looping animation that works in any context without a video player.

Why convert PDF to GIF?

Most people convert PDF to GIF for compatibility — a website, app or device insists on GIF, and PDF simply won't open. GIF is widely supported, which makes it a dependable target. Under the hood the conversion runs on libvips and ImageMagick — the same libraries that power image pipelines across the web — so colour, transparency and metadata are handled correctly wherever the target format supports them.

PDF vs GIF: what changes

PDF is a vector format and GIF is made of pixels, so the conversion "rasterizes" your artwork at a fixed resolution — pick a size large enough for where it will be used, because a raster GIF can't be scaled up later the way PDF can. Unlike PDF, GIF supports transparency, so it's a good target if you later need a cut-out.

When you'd convert PDF to GIF

It comes up when publishing online, submitting to a service with strict format rules, or archiving a collection in a single consistent format.

Is it private?

Privacy is the default here. Your PDF file is uploaded over an encrypted connection, converted, downloaded the moment it's ready, and then deleted automatically a short time afterwards. We never keep your files, never build a library of your content, and never make you sign up to download the result.
