Edit a PDFSteps to convert a report PDF
Open the PDF and set the zoom higher than you need — resolution follows it.
Choose PNG for crisp type and clean edges, or JPG for smaller photographic pages.
Export. Each page becomes its own numbered image file.
Check the smallest text is still readable before you use them.
What to watch out for on a report
With this kind of document, long documents have contents pages and internal links, so check them after page changes.
One caution worth stating plainly: note substantive corrections rather than making them silently.
Why the result holds up
Remember an image has no text layer, so keep the PDF if anyone needs to search or copy from it.
