Or on a Windows system, the print screen button. There are instructions how to capture just the active window.

Found a function to display it in the browser.
Then, I could manage it with screenshot to get it to jpg.

It changed the location of one word but that was easy enough to work around.

Use a clipping tool like the one in Windows. Select rectangle. Select the area you wish to copy then save it to where ever you wish. It should save as a jpg you can use as an image.
Again, it may not be the best quality but other programs can clarify it somewhat.
Hope that works for you.

I have never converted a .doc to .jpg, but I have used the site below literally hundreds of times, and it is the best quality for even large files.

https://www.freeconvert.com/doc-to-jpg

Leave the window open while it is converting, and download the file within 8 hours. It is deleted from the site after that.

The only limit I've come across is if the conversion takes more than five minutes, but in every case it's because my original file was flawed. (I convert files I don't have apps or programs for.)

Good luck!

I used one of the methods, but this also shows other ways that folks can use.
