How Grayscale works

Printing on a black-and-white printer, or just want a document without color? Gojli's Grayscale tool desaturates every page — text, graphics, and images alike.

  1. 1

    Upload your PDF

    Choose the color PDF you want converted to black and white.

  2. 2

    Pick a quality level

    Higher quality looks sharper (especially for text-heavy pages) at the cost of a larger file.

  3. 3

    Download your grayscale PDF

    Gojli desaturates every page and gives you a direct download link.

Frequently asked questions

Will the text still be selectable afterward?

No — each page is converted to a high-resolution grayscale image, so text is no longer selectable or searchable, only visible.

Why rasterize instead of just recoloring the text and shapes?

Rasterizing guarantees every element on the page — text, vector graphics, images, gradients — is genuinely desaturated, rather than only some of them.
