How to do it

  1. Drop your .ai file below. Its artboards appear as pages.
  2. Choose the pages, a resolution (150 DPI for screens, 300 for print) and a background colour if needed.
  3. Press Convert. Each artboard becomes its own JPG.

Why JPG, and when not to

JPG is the format that every form, email client and marketplace accepts, which is the usual reason to turn Illustrator artwork into one. It cannot hold transparency and adds faint smudging around hard edges, so for logos on coloured backgrounds AI to PNG is cleaner.

White background

JPG fills any empty area with a solid colour. The PDF inside a modern .ai is rendered as a white page, so you get white unless you pick a different background colour in the options.

If it will not open

A .ai saved without PDF compatibility needs Illustrator itself to draw. You will get a message asking for a re-save with "Create PDF Compatible File" ticked, or for a PDF export, rather than a broken image.

Questions

Is this free?

Yes. No account, no watermark, no cap on how many files you convert.

Are my files uploaded?

No. The conversion runs inside your browser on your own device. Nothing is sent to a server — you can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.

Can I convert an AI file to JPG without Illustrator?

Yes. The file is rendered in your browser, with no Adobe software or account.

Does each artboard become a separate JPG?

Yes. Each artboard is a page in the file. Pick the ones you want and each is saved as its own JPG.

Can I get a transparent background?

Not in a JPG. Use AI to PNG, though note that PDF-based .ai files are rendered on a white page.

What DPI should I use?

150 DPI for screens and documents, 300 DPI for print.
