pdf2png — PDF to Vertically Concatenated PNG

Convert multi-page PDF files into a single tall PNG image. All pages are rendered at 2x scale (Retina quality) and stitched vertically. Uses macOS CoreGraphics directly — no pdftoppm, no ImageMagick, no Ghostscript.

When to Use

  • User wants to convert a PDF to a single PNG image
  • User needs a long screenshot-style image of a PDF
  • User wants to share PDF content as an image (WeChat, social media, etc.)

Workflow

Step 1: Identify PDF files

Locate the PDF file(s) the user wants to convert. Confirm the path(s).

Step 2: Execute

bash lovstudio-pdf2png/scripts/pdf2png.sh /path/to/file.pdf

Output: 

/path/to/file.png
(same directory, same name, 
.png
extension).

For multiple files:

bash lovstudio-pdf2png/scripts/pdf2png.sh file1.pdf file2.pdf file3.pdf

Step 3: Verify

Check the output file exists and report its size.

CLI Reference

in the same directory as the input file.
