About this tool

A cover image is what sells or identifies a document: the thumbnail on a landing page, the preview in a listing, the image in a social post or email. It needs to be sharp, and it needs to be a single file rather than an archive.

This renders page one only, at up to four times normal size, and returns a lossless PNG. PNG matters here because covers are usually text-heavy — a JPG at the same size would soften the title.

What it's good for

  • Making a cover image for a downloadable guide or ebook.
  • Adding a preview image to a product listing.
  • Creating an image for a social post about a report.
  • Generating an icon for a document in an app.

Features

  • Cover page only

    One image, no archive to unpack.

  • Up to 4× detail

    Sharp enough for retina and large displays.

  • Lossless PNG

    Titles and fine text stay crisp.

  • Dimensions reported

    The pixel size is shown with the result.
