Image to PDF, any picture type, in one file.

An image to PDF converter puts pictures into a PDF, one on each page. This one takes almost any picture type: JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC from an iPhone, GIF, BMP, AVIF, and TIFF scans with many pages, all in one batch if you like. You choose the order, the page size, the margin and whether a picture fills the page or sits whole on it. The PDF is made in your browser, nothing is uploaded, and the page tells you how big the finished file is.

How to convert images to PDF

1. Drop your pictures on Drop any pictures here, or click to choose. Mixed types are fine. You can paste a screenshot too.
2. Drag the cards into the order you want the pages. Press Add files to bring in more.
3. Turn a sideways picture with its turn button, and take one out with the cross.
4. Under Pages choose Page size, Orientation, Pictures per page, Fit and Margin. The preview shows the page as it will come out.
5. Open PDF file to name the file, set Picture quality and Colour, or choose A PDF for each picture, in a ZIP under Make.
6. Press Make the PDF, then download it. The size of the file is shown next to the old size.

What happens to each type of picture

The page copies a picture into the PDF as it is when it can, and draws it once when it cannot. That keeps quality where it matters.

Choosing Smaller or Smallest under Picture quality draws every picture again at no more than 2,000 or 1,200 pixels on the long side. Black and white under Colour helps scans of paper.

Worked example: a mixed pile

You have two phone photos (JPG), a screenshot (PNG) and a three-page TIFF scan from an office. Drop all four items together. The TIFF becomes three cards, so you see six cards in all. Drag the screenshot to the front, leave the page size on A4 and the orientation on Match each picture, and press Make the PDF. The result has six pages: the screenshot, the two photos, then the three scan pages.

How much smaller can it get?

A phone photo of 4032 x 3024 pixels has 12,192,768 pixels. With Smaller, the long side is cut to 2,000 pixels, so the picture is 2000 x 1500, which is 3,000,000 pixels, about a quarter of the original. The file shrinks by a similar share, though how much depends on the picture. If the form that wants your PDF has an upload limit, set Smaller first and look at the size shown.

Choosing the page size

Pick A4 or US Letter when the PDF may be printed or goes to an office that expects paper sizes. US Legal, A5 and A3 are in the menu too. Pick Same as each picture for a PDF that stays on screens: each page then takes the shape of its picture, with no white edges. For a mix of wide and tall pictures, leave Orientation on Match each picture, so each page faces the way that shows its picture biggest.

Adding a PDF to the pile

A PDF dropped in among the pictures keeps its own pages and goes in at the place you put it. That is handy for a cover letter in front of a stack of scans. The same goes for a PDF you add later with Add files.

Naming the file

Under PDF file, File name sets the name. If you leave it empty, the PDF is named after the first picture, with "and-more" added when there are several. A single picture keeps its own name.

Fit or fill

Whole picture, white edges shows everything and leaves white where the shapes differ. Fill the space, crop the edges covers the page and cuts off what sticks out. Use the first for documents and scans, the second for photos on a full page.

Common problems

• A TIFF will not open. It may be damaged or use a compression the reader does not know. Save it again as an uncompressed, LZW or JPEG TIFF.
• A picture is sideways. Most phone photos carry their orientation and come out upright. If one does not, press its turn button.
• The PDF is too large. Choose Smaller or Smallest, or switch to Black and white for text pages.
• A file is not a picture. It is left out and named in the message above the cards.
