Suppose you don't want to save a file in some variation of a text format,
but instead would like to save it as a set of image pages, or export the
images to use elsewhere.
To save a PDF as an image, do the following:
1. Choose File > Save As and select an image export option from the
Format pop-up menu.
2. Click Settings to open the Settings dialog. Modify the options in the
Save As [type] Settings dialog according to your requirements, which
vary depending on the file format you selected.
3. Click OK and return to the Save As dialog. Click Save to convert the file.
Acrobat converts each page of your document to an image: The image
will be the same size as the document page.
You can also export the images alone, and specify the extraction size
and other details. Follow these steps:
1. Choose Advanced > Document Processing > Export All Images. Browse
for the folder you want to use to store the images in the Export All
Images As dialog.
2. Choose an image format from the list at the bottom of the dialog. Your
choices include JPG, TIF, PNG, and JPEG2000.

An image of a document
makes a very nice link from
another document. When
you are building a large
project incorporating sev-
eral types of material, you
typically link the documents
together. Instead of using
text to link, use a thumbnail-
sized image of the first page
of linked documents, such
as image samples or slide
shows. Be sure the outcome
is worth the effort—don't
use an image of an all-text
page, for example.
