How do I convert a pdf file to a jpg or bmp file?

I have a Mid 2010 iMac OX Yos 10.10.1 with an HP all in one printer/scanner. I am scanning a document to file and it is saving as a pdf I am trying to edit the document and the program i use to edit things like this is Paintbrush. However, for me to use this app to edit my project, the file must be in jpg or bmp format. Scanning the file as a photo to file is not an option either because for some odd reason it only scans the upper right hand corner of the document. I need to get this done TODAY any help on how to convert/change a file format would be AWESOME and would be indebted for life !!!!
Thank you

Scanning to a PDF is a waste of time. I really don't understand why people do that. All you're doing is embedding a raster image (a TIFF, JPEG, etc.) inside a container file (the PDF). It doesn't save a bit of space. Scan images to what they are; a raster file.
Your problem though is your junky scanning software doesn't work as it's supposed to when you do choose JPEG, or other raster pixel format, and only correctly scans the area you want when you choose PDF.
Open the PDF in Preview and export it as the highest quality JPEG, or a TIFF. You'll then be able to open it in Paintbrush.

Thanks

Thank you so much . . . yes, the answer "staring me in the face".
Great advice.
After combining the pdf files into a SINGLE document . . . I just selected "SAVE-AS" . . . and selected "jpg" as the format.

How do I convert a pdf file into a word doc in order to make chnages?

You need Acrobat and can then use File --> Save As... --> Microsoft Word. Just don't expect miracels. PDFs aren't meant for editing and you may end up with clumps of text and lose all formatting and may have to rebuild the document completely.
