Is there a Smallpdf alternative that does not upload my documents?

Yes. This tool turns PDF pages into images entirely inside your browser, so the file never leaves your device. You can confirm it by loading the page, disconnecting from the internet, and converting a PDF anyway.

Can it do everything Smallpdf does?

No, and it does not try to. It turns PDF pages into images, and elsewhere on the site you can merge, split and reorder pages. It does not compress PDFs, convert to or from Office formats, read scanned text, or add a signature. For those jobs Smallpdf is the better fit.

Is there a daily limit?

No. Smallpdf caps how many free tasks you can run in a day, and asks for an account for regular use. Here there is no task limit, no quota and no account.

Does it cost anything?

No. There is no paid tier, no account and no watermark on the images you get back.

What do I get out of it?

One image per page, in JPG format, ready to download. To go the other way and build a PDF from images, use the images to PDF converter .

When to use Smallpdf instead

You need to shrink a PDF's file size

Smallpdf compresses PDFs down to a smaller file. We do not, so if a bloated PDF is your problem, that is the one job here they do and we do not.

You need Office conversion, scanned-text reading or e-signing

Smallpdf turns PDFs into Word or Excel documents, reads text out of scans, and lets you sign a document. We do none of those three. If that is the task, reach for them.

You already live in their ecosystem

They have desktop and mobile apps and connect to the storage services you may already use. We are a set of web pages, so if those integrations matter, they earn the visit.
