Hiya, can anyone help me on converting some .pdf files to .jpeg so I can upload them to MSE please?

I'm using the scanner at work (schhhhhh!) which only sends them to me as .pdf so I'm kinda stuck with the source but need to convert them so I can PM them to someone on here......

My brain is frazzled trying to work it out (guess who's not the technical one?!) :eek:

TIA :beer:

    Hi
    This question has been asked quite recently.
    The advice was to take a screenshot then paste it into Paint then save it as jpeg.

    Tried doing this but as the document is 6 pages long does that mean that I have to make six paint files?
    Sorrt to sound so dim but never used Paint before!

    Yes
    Display one page, take a snapshot, copy and paste and save.
    Do this for each of the pages, one at a time.

    For quick file conversion I use a free site called Zamzar (search for it).
    I have only ever used it for converting new docx word files to older doc files, but it gives loads of options.
