file size being decreased

Posted on by 27
my flow is extracting a PDF from an automated email, creating a PDF file, storing a PDF file, converting the PDF to a JPG, and saving the JPG file in the same place. the PDF ranges from 57-65kb in the email and is saved at this size by power automate, but when it converts it to a JPG, it is making the JPG file about half the size of the original PDF, can anybody help me figure out how to get the JPG to save a larger file size?

    Hello,
     
    dont think you can change this without using 3rd party connectors. JPG is a lossy image format. 
     
    The only solutions I know are 
     
    Switch to Power Automate Desktop, where you can:
    Set DPI (e.g., 300 or 600)
    Choose output format and quality

    or use a premium connector like Encodian or Adobe PDF Services that allows you to control image quality.
