Let’s look at examples. Сonverting DOC or DOCX to JPG can be useful in situations where you want to make sure that the document will not be easily copied or modified. Or you want to publish a document directly to your site and be sure that all users can view it: all web browsers support JPG display, but not all browsers have a plug-in for viewing Word files. In addition, JPG may also be a more convenient format for showing all or individual pages of a document in slides or on someone else’s computer, which may not have software installed to view Word or PDF documents, but almost certainly has JPG viewing software installed.
