With the free Nimbo web tool (any device)

Open PDF to JPG (or PDF to PNG for sharp text and transparency-free graphics) and drop your PDF.
Choose the resolution and, if needed, which pages to convert.
Select Convert and download the image or the ZIP.

With Preview on a Mac

Open the PDF in Preview and select the page.
Choose File > Export, set Format to JPEG and the resolution.
Save. Preview exports one page at a time this way.

Tips

Choose PNG for documents with small text or diagrams: it stays sharp.
300 dpi images of A4 pages are large; use 150 dpi to share on screen.
To get the original photos embedded in a PDF instead of whole pages, use Extract images from PDF.
