Image to PDF Converter (JPG, PNG, HEIC to PDF)
Put photos, scans and screenshots into one tidy PDF — in any order, on any paper size.
Pages, in order
Drag a picture to move it (or use the grip and the arrow keys). Photos are turned upright automatically using their EXIF orientation; use Rotate for any that are still sideways.
About the Image to PDF Converter (JPG, PNG, HEIC to PDF)
Turn one picture or a whole stack of them into a single PDF: JPG, PNG, HEIC/HEIF from iPhones, WebP, GIF, BMP, AVIF, multi-page TIFF scans, and comic-book CBZ or ZIP files of images. You can also drop in PDFs, whose pages are added as they are, in between your images.
Arrange the pages by dragging the thumbnails, choose the paper size (fit to each image, A4, US Letter, Legal, A3, A5 or your own size), the orientation and margins, and put up to six images on a page. JPEG photos keep their compressed picture data exactly as it is — no recompression — and are turned the right way up using their EXIF orientation, while hidden photo details such as the camera and GPS location are left out of the PDF. Everything happens in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
How to use it
- Drop your images (and any PDFs) onto the box above, or tap Choose images. You can add more at any time; pasting an image with Ctrl+V / ⌘V works too.
- Put the pages in order: drag the thumbnails, use the arrow buttons, or Sort by name. Press Rotate for any picture that is still sideways.
- Choose the page size, orientation, margins, how images are placed (fit, fill or actual size) and how many go on a page.
- Optionally set an image resolution limit to make big phone photos smaller, and name the file.
- Press Create PDF, then Download PDF.
Examples
IMG_0101.HEIC … IMG_0124.HEIC — Page size: A4 · Fit · 1 per page
images.pdf — 24 A4 pages, each photo upright and as large as the page allows
4 JPG photos — Page size: A4 · Images per page: 4 · Margins: Small
One A4 page with a 2 × 2 grid of receipts; the JPEGs are embedded unchanged
A4 210 × 297 mm = 595.28 × 841.89 pt US Letter 8.5 × 11 in = 612 × 792 pt US Legal 8.5 × 14 in = 612 × 1008 pt
A-series sizes follow ISO 216; Letter and Legal follow ANSI/ASME Y14.1.
Common uses
- Sending scanned documents or photos of forms as one PDF that portals and email accept.
- Turning a phone photo series — receipts, homework, a signed contract — into a single file.
- Converting multi-page TIFF scans or CBZ comics into PDF.
- Putting several small pictures on one page to save paper when printing.
What happens to image quality
- JPEG pictures go into the PDF byte for byte — the PDF stores the same compressed data, so there is no quality loss and the size barely grows. EXIF orientation is applied by how the picture is placed on the page, not by re-encoding it. The photo’s metadata (EXIF and XMP: camera, date and any GPS location) and embedded thumbnails are left out.
- PNG files are stored losslessly.
- HEIC/HEIF, WebP, AVIF, GIF, BMP and TIFF can’t be stored in a PDF as they are, so they are converted once: photos as high-quality JPEG (or PNG if they have transparency), graphics and scans losslessly as PNG.
- With an image resolution limit, pictures that would be sharper than that limit on the page are scaled down to it, which can make a PDF of phone photos much smaller. Pictures already at or below the limit are left alone.
Page size and placement
Fit to each image makes every page exactly the size of its image, using the resolution stored in the file when it is a real scanning resolution (96 pixels per inch or more — most cameras just write a placeholder 72), and 150 pixels per inch otherwise. A fixed paper size keeps all pages the same; Auto orientation turns each page to match its pictures.
Fit shows the whole image as large as possible. Fill covers the space completely and crops the edges that stick out. Actual size keeps the image’s real printed size (from its resolution) and centres it, shrinking it only if it doesn’t fit.
Pages taken from PDFs are copied unchanged at their own size and always start a new page.
Files are checked by their content
Each file is identified from its first bytes, not from its name, so a mislabelled photo still works and a file that isn’t an image is skipped with a message. Single images can be up to 80 MB, PDFs up to 300 MB and ZIP/CBZ archives up to 1 GB; archives are checked before unpacking (number of files, total size and compression ratio) to block “zip bombs”.
Limitations
- Password-protected PDFs can’t be added — remove the password first.
- Animated GIFs and animated WebPs contribute only their first frame.
- Very large jobs (hundreds of full-size photos) need a lot of memory; on phones, make several smaller PDFs and combine them with Merge PDF.
- The PDF contains pictures of your pages, not text. To make scanned text searchable, run the PDF through OCR PDF.
- HEIC/HEIF decoding loads an extra component (about 3 MB) the first time in browsers that can’t open HEIC themselves.

Frequently asked questions
Are my photos uploaded?
No. The images are read and the PDF is built inside your browser, on your device. Nothing is sent to a server.
Does converting JPG to PDF reduce quality?
Not here: JPEG picture data is copied into the PDF unchanged — only hidden metadata such as the GPS location is left out. Quality is only reduced if you set an image resolution limit, and then only for pictures above that limit.
My iPhone photos are HEIC. Can I use them?
Yes. HEIC and HEIF photos are decoded in your browser and added as high-quality JPEGs, the right way up.
Why is one of my photos sideways?
Phones store photos sideways and record the correct direction in an EXIF “orientation” tag, which this tool follows. If a picture has no such tag — or a wrong one — press Rotate on its thumbnail before creating the PDF.
Will the PDF reveal where my photos were taken?
No. Phone cameras often store the GPS location, the date and the camera model inside a photo (EXIF). That information is not copied into the PDF — only the pictures themselves are.
Can I mix PDFs and images?
Yes. Add PDFs alongside your images: each of their pages becomes a card you can move between the pictures, and it is copied into the result unchanged.
