PdF to JPEG for working in Silhouette Studio 4.1

I have finally updated my Silhouette Studio to 4.1 to find out that I can not do bring PDF's to Studio anymore. It only can be done on the Designer accounts This is my work around this. It is simply and better FREE.

Step 1:

In Windows 10 go to start (see below) and type PDF to JPEG and hit enter.

Click on the Windows Store when it pops up. Then click on APPS and in the search box type: PDF to JPEG. Install app in the box below:

Follow the install instruction on screen. 

Step 2:

Once installed open up the app. 

Click on select file and find you PDF  you want converted to jpeg. Your file will then come up in PDF converter.  If more than one PDF in that file all will come up. Each one will be saved a one jpeg each. IE 1 PDF with 12 pics then  12 jpeg's so that you can work with them individually. Which is great as far as I am concerned.  You will then need to to click on select folder.

This will be where you jpeg's will go. Make a folder of click existing folder and then click on the select folder button.

It will then bring you back to you PDF converter screen. You will see that the convert tab is no longer grayed out. 

Then your done. You PDF has been converted and you can do what ever you need to do with it as a jpeg in Silhouette Studio 4.1. 

This is my card I made from a free download for Tattered Lace magazine. I will be giving this card away free to the 30th person to like this page. This is a blank card with envelope. If you win and want me to put a sentiment in it I will be for I send it. 

Thanks for reading my blog and I hope this is helpful to all. Keep crafting and good luck.
