    At work I have Adobe Professional (or something to that effect) that I can save PDF's to jpegs, but my home computer does have that. If you haven't figured it out by tomorrow morning. E-mail it to me in the morning and I can e-mail back a jpeg.

      Zamzar does it free, if you don't mind uploading it and getting it back via email. Nice if you only need to do one doc and arent' worried about confidential data.

      There are a ton of free- and shareware converters converters if you think you'll need to do it more often.

        I just doubleclick the pdf so it opens in Preview and use Save as... to save it again as a jpg.
        But then again I use a Mac so life is a bit easier I guess... :oP

          I always wondered about that myself.

            Print the picture and then scan it. Save as a jpg.

              Hey bigblock, I'm using a MAC as well. I can't seem to up load pictures. When I open iphoto file, the pictures are jpegs. When I click to up load, it says up load failed. How ever if I go into the all images folder, I can up load the photo BUT the tab to preview the thumb name to see what I'm up loading doesn't work, I can only see the file info. This only happens when trying to up load from BS. Any thoughts?

                  Funny enough. Our mining software prints horribly to Jpeg, but prints great to PDF, so for power point presentations and such, I find myself printing to PDF then saving it as a Jpeg =P

                    Is it just one picture? Just press the print screen key on your keyboard and paste it into Microsoft Paint. Then you can save it as a jpeg, png, bmp etc.

                    If you have a lot of images to convert, then you might want to try some third party software.

                      How about using the Prt Scr button on the keyboard. Take a screen shot with that button, paste it in MS Paint, and voila.

                              Tom, I don't use iPhoto much, but I don't get a preview image either right after the upload, just file info. But that's OK with me.
                              Maybe the iPhoto files were just too big? There's a 192KB imagesize limit.

                              The engineblock-thumbnail in the post seems to work fine for me.

                              Tried uploading a PDF aswell but the filesize limit is set ridiculously low at some 19KB max.

                              SilverBuick, printing to a file should always be done to PDF.
                              That way text will remain 'text' which stays sharp when printing and/or scaling to other sizes.
                              Saving as a JPG turns text into a bitmap-image which will only be sharp at the specified dpi (DotsPerInch) and intended usage.
