RasterNivo documentation
RasterNivo converts PDF pages to JPG images on the web, on your PC and through a REST API. One account and one credit balance work in all three.
Early access. RasterNivo is opening gradually, and the API address below becomes active when it opens.

Desktop app
Convert on your own PC. Your files aren't uploaded.
How the API works
Conversions are asynchronous, because a large PDF can take a while. Every conversion follows the same three steps:
- Upload. Send the PDF and your options to
POST /v1/conversions. You get a job back straight away. - Wait. Check the job with
GET /v1/conversions/{id}, or receive a webhook when it ends. - Download.
GET /v1/conversions/{id}/resultgives you a link to each JPG and the ZIP.
