Linux: Save a pdf presentation to individual image slides

By | May 26, 2017

There is a very simple way to save a pdf presentation to individual jpeg images of the slides using convert.

convert -density 300 presentation.pdf presentation_page_%04d.jpg

where:
– density 300 specifies the DPI used to read the pdf.
– presentation_page_%04d.jpg is a name pattern for the saved images

As a result if presentation has 20 slides we get image slides like:
presentation_page_0000.jpg

presentation_page_0019.jpg
