## Important Note
|
|
|
|
Krita can natively import PDFs with each page as a layer. You can simply open the PDF within Krita and then cut/copy/paste each later into a new image as appropriate or work with them as a single image.
|
|
|
|
The above approch with Krita can be significantly easier and less fiddly than the below.
|
|

|
## The original blog post...
|
|
|
|
If you have access to `imagemagick` you can quickly convert a PDF coloring page(s) to grayscale PNG using the below procedure and notes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Notes {#notes}
|
|
|
|
- The `pdfimages` command below will get you a dpi listing for each page in the PDF that has an image, use that value instead of `300` in the below, **if** it is present.
|
|
- The `-type Grayscale` parameter can be removed if you need color output.
|
|
- If the below fails Adobe has an online converter at: https://www.adobe.com/acrobat/online/convert-pdf.html
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Conversion {#conversion}
|
|
|
|
1. Install `imagemagick`
|
|
2. `pdfimages -list shipspage1.pdf`
|
|
3. ``for file in `ls *.pdf`; do convert -density 300 -type Grayscale ${file} ${file}.png; done``
