The method, explained
Each chosen page is rendered to pixels. Scale 2 renders at approximately 144 DPI.
A 612 × 792 point page at scale 2 becomes a 1224 × 1584 pixel image.
What to keep in mind
PDF tools accept unencrypted PDFs, up to 20 MB total and 200 pages. Editing may discard bookmarks, interactive forms, attachments or signatures. Keep an original copy. Text extraction is not OCR, and scanned pages may contain no text.
