Frequently Asked Questions

Why would I want to rasterize a PDF?+

It's useful for guaranteeing consistent rendering across viewers, protecting content from easy text extraction, or simplifying documents with complex vector graphics that render inconsistently.

Will text still be selectable or searchable afterward?+

No, once a page is rasterized to an image, its text is no longer selectable or searchable unless you run OCR on it afterward.

Does rasterizing increase the file size?+

Typically yes, since image data is generally larger than the original vector/text content it replaces.
