Anyone know how to convert a .pdf file into a .jpg one ?



You have several suggestions. However, yet another way is to use 'Bullzip
PDF Printer'.

As well as producing PDF files from almost anything, Bullzip* can produce
eight other image formats - including JPG.
*I almost always use Bullzip (freeware) to produce PDFs.

Note: Also needs Ghostscript V8.6.4 or later.

I thought that this Bullzip thing sounded quite useful, so I downloaded and
installed it, which all went ok. However, it seemed to bolt itself in as the
default 'printer', and completely removed any reference to the 'real' HP
hardware printer. Thinking that it had just set itself up as the default, I
went into control panel to put the HP back to that status, and Lo ! it had
gone from the list ... So I then had to re - add it as a new shared network
printer, and make sure that it was set as the default. Am I missing
something here ? I have to have the HP as the default, otherwise the missus
and so on won't understand when they come to print anything. Now that I've
re-instated the HP as the default printer, Bullzip is still in the list, but
obviously as a selectable alternative. Have I got it right now ?
