I was trying to convert a 4-page PDF file to images using Export PDF as Image, but it’s only converting the first and last pages into a single image .
Cause 1: “Spreads” Export Option Is Enabled
If “Export as Spread” or “2-up layout” is selected, the tool might combine multiple pages (first and last, or pages 1+4) into one image.
Fix:
Check if there’s an export option called:
- “Export as individual pages”
- “Do not combine pages”
- “Single page layout”
Enable that to ensure each page is exported separately.
Cause 2: Page Range Incorrectly Set
Some tools let you specify which pages to export, and a bad configuration could include only page 1 and 4.
Fix:
Double-check the page range settings and ensure it’s set to export:
- All Pages, or
- 1-4
Cause 3: Faulty PDF Reader/Converter
The converter you’re using might not fully support multi-page image exports or has a bug.
Fix:
Try one of these reliable alternatives:
- Adobe Acrobat Pro: File > Export To > Image > PNG/JPG > All Pages
- Online tools like PDFCandy, ILovePDF
- Python script using
pdf2image
(if you’re comfortable with coding)
Cause 4: Export to Image Using “Print” Instead of “Export”
If you used “Print to Image” or “Save as image” via a virtual printer, it may create only a composite of visible or selected pages.
Fix:
Use Export or Save As Image from within the actual Export/Conversion menu, not Print.
Final Tip:
If you let me know which software or tool you’re using for this conversion (e.g., Adobe Acrobat, Foxit, online converter, etc.), I can give you more precise instructions.
mostly it might be that the range is given wrong..please check the same or show some screenshot to understand
cheers
Yes page count is correct
Export PDF to Image coverts only 1 image at a time.
You can use it inside a While loop if you want to iterate over multiple pages sequentially using a counter variable.
Output file name will also need to be a variable to account the page numbers as per counter.

What is the loop on? Isnt it on the pages?
As page number is what you need to provide not like number of pages
Like if you give 4 it converts page 4 always
Cheers
