Turn images into a PDF
Creating your PDF
PDF complete
Details
Drop JPG or PNG files and get one PDF. Each format is detected by its magic bytes rather than by its file name, so a wrong extension does not break the job. Choose A4 or Letter and a margin. The original pixels go onto the page without resampling, in this tab, with nothing uploaded.
How to turn images into a PDF
-
Choose your images
Press Choose images, or drop JPG and PNG files on the page. The images are read and previewed in this tab.
-
Mix photos and screenshots
JPG photos and PNG screenshots go into one list. Use the arrows to set the page order, and remove any image you do not need.
-
Choose the page fit
Match image, A4 or US Letter, with no margin, 0.25 inch or 0.5 inch. Images are fitted whole, without cropping or resampling.
-
Read the check, then download
The result is opened again. Every page, page size and embedded image dimension must match before the download appears.
Your pixels go in unchanged
The image you choose is embedded in the PDF exactly as it arrived. Nothing is resampled, no JPG is decoded and saved again, and no quality setting sits between your file and the page. A photograph that was three thousand pixels wide is still three thousand pixels wide inside the PDF, whichever paper size you pick.
Paper size changes only how large that image is drawn. On A4 or US Letter the image is fitted inside the margins you chose, so a high-resolution photograph is simply printed at a smaller physical size and at a higher effective resolution. Choose Match image instead and each page takes the shape of its own picture, which is what you want for screenshots and scans that should not sit on a letter-shaped page with white bands down the sides.
Because nothing is recompressed, the PDF is roughly as large as the images that went into it. The same holds whether you convert two pics from a phone or a folder of scans: this converter adds no compression of its own.
Questions
- Are my images uploaded to a server?
- No. Reading the images, building the PDF, checking it and downloading it all happen in this browser tab.
- Does this reduce image quality?
- No. The JPG or PNG is embedded without resampling. A fixed paper size changes how large the image appears on the page, not its pixel dimensions.
- What does Match image mean?
- Each PDF page follows the shape and proportions of its image. A margin adds space around it. Very large images are scaled on the page to stay within the PDF page-size limit, but their source pixels remain embedded.
- What happens to landscape images on A4 or US Letter?
- The page turns to landscape automatically, then fits the whole image inside the chosen margins without cropping.
- Which image formats does it accept?
- JPG and PNG. The file type is read from the first bytes of each file rather than from its name, so an image saved with the wrong extension is still handled correctly.
- What about HEIC, WebP, BMP or TIFF files?
- Each has its own tool, because each needs its own decoder: HEIC to PDF, WebP to PDF, BMP to PDF and TIFF to PDF.
- Will a phone photo come out sideways?
- No. A JPG from a phone camera carries a rotation flag, and the tool reads it. The image is turned upright on its page, and the image list marks that photo with camera rotation applied.
- What is the PDF called?
- The name of the first image in your list, without its extension, plus -images.pdf. A list that starts with beach.jpg saves as beach-images.pdf.
