What it does

Also called: turn pdf pages into images · convert a pdf to png · export pdf pages as pictures.

Use it from your own code

The same endpoint this page calls — no daily cap, 3 credits a call either way.

POST /v1/documents/pdf-to-images

curl -X POST "$DOATHING_API/v1/documents/pdf-to-images" \
  -H "x-api-key: $DOATHING_KEY" \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{"file": {"filename": "report.pdf", "content_type": "application/pdf", "data_b64": "<base64>"}, "options": {"dpi": 150, "pages": "1-2"}}'

Every page rendered as a PNG or JPEG at whatever resolution you need.

Render PDF pages to PNG or JPEG images at a configurable DPI.

Input

Send a file object with base64 data_b64, its content_type and a filename. Accepted types: application/pdf.

The declared type is not trusted — the bytes are sniffed and a contradiction is rejected rather than corrected.

Response

The result carries your remaining balance alongside it, so you can track spend without a second call.

  "images": [
    {
      "page": 1,
      "filename": "report-page-1.png",

}

Cost

3 credits per call, whether it is run from the site or from the API — the credential differs, the price does not. A new account starts with 20 credits.

A rejected request still costs a credit: the authorizer decrements before the tool validates. A call rejected for a missing or invalid key is free.

Parameters

Generated from the endpoint’s own validation, so this is exactly what it accepts. A body field goes at the top level; an option goes inside options.
