Images to PDF made simpler, in your browser

A folder of photos, screenshots, or scanned sheets can be awkward to print or submit. This images to PDF tool puts one image on each PDF page and follows the order shown in the list. Add JPG, JPEG, or PNG files, move them up or down, and remove any that do not belong. You can download one combined PDF or create a separate one-page PDF for each image. When there is more than one separate result, the files come in a ZIP archive with numbered names. The original image files stay on your device.

The tool uses a browser worker to decode and place the images. It does not upload them to a conversion service. That local processing claim applies to your selected files; the website itself may still load ordinary scripts, fonts, and styles over the network. The current limits are 30 images, 20 MB per file, 120 MB across the selection, and 25 megapixels per image. These limits help keep large photo batches from exhausting browser memory. JPG, JPEG, and PNG are the formats enabled here. HEIC, TIFF, WebP, and other formats are not advertised because they have not been verified in this workflow.

1. Add images. Select several JPG or PNG files from your device. Each accepted image appears with a thumbnail, pixel size, and file size. The tool reads the file signature and checks that the browser can decode it; a renamed or damaged file is not treated as a successful import.
2. Review the page order. Page 1 comes from the first image in the list, page 2 from the second, and so on. Use the arrows to adjust order or remove an image. Re-adding the same filename, byte size, and modification time is skipped to avoid an accidental duplicate page. A deliberately separate copy may still be added.
3. Choose the output. Select one combined PDF for a report or application, or choose one PDF per image when each photo must be submitted separately. Several individual PDFs are packaged as a ZIP; one image produces a single PDF download.
4. Set page layout. Let each PDF page follow its image's proportions, or select one paper size such as A4, A3, Letter, Legal, or custom dimensions. Standard paper can follow each image's portrait or landscape direction or use the direction you specify. Enter a margin in millimetres or inches.
5. Choose contain or cover. Contain shows the entire image and may leave blank space. Cover fills the area inside the margin but crops an edge when the page and picture have different proportions. Check the thumbnails and plan before choosing cover, particularly for text near the edge.
6. Download and inspect. Create the result, open the PDF or ZIP contents, and confirm page count, sequence, rotation, margins, and background. A successful download does not replace a review of the images you intend to share.

Image-ratio mode makes every page follow its image's shape. A wide landscape photo makes a wide page, while a tall receipt makes a tall page. The longest content side is limited to roughly the long side of A4 paper, with the chosen margin added around it. This avoids a very large PDF page simply because a camera produced thousands of pixels. Pixel count is a measure of image detail; it is not itself a physical paper size. If you need every output sheet to be exactly A4 or Letter, select uniform paper instead.

Uniform paper mode is useful for printing, filing, or portals that demand one sheet size. With “follow each image,” a landscape image gets the landscape version of A4 or Letter and a portrait image gets the portrait version. If a school or office requires all pages portrait, choose that explicitly. A wide screenshot on portrait paper may become smaller in contain mode because the complete image must fit within the available width. Custom paper accepts width and height in the displayed unit and uses their order exactly, so a larger width makes a landscape sheet.

The margin value reserves the same amount of space on all four sides of a page. This can keep an image away from a printer's edge or give a scanned sheet a consistent visual border. In contain mode, the tool calculates a single scale factor from the available width and height, then centers the full image. It never stretches width independently of height. Depending on the proportions, there may be more empty space on two sides than the minimum margin. That is expected when the whole picture is retained.

Cover mode calculates the larger of the width and height scale factors, fills the available rectangle, and clips content outside it. The PDF page still keeps the selected margin because the image is clipped to the inner area. Use cover for photographs where a full-bleed composition matters and no subject is close to an edge. Do not use it blindly for documents, receipts, labels, or screenshots with text: part of the image may be lost from view. The plan counts pages whose image edges will be clipped so the effect is visible before processing.

A phone JPEG may store landscape pixel data together with an EXIF instruction saying the photo should appear upright. When such an instruction is present, the browser decodes the image in its intended orientation before it is placed on the PDF page. The list shows the corrected pixel dimensions and flags a camera orientation adjustment. A JPEG with no rotation instruction can be embedded directly without an extra image encoding step. Orientation is not the same as paper direction: after the photo reads upright, the page may still be portrait or landscape according to your layout setting.

PNG images can contain transparent pixels. The default background is white, which makes screenshots, diagrams, and logos predictable on ordinary PDF pages. You can choose black or retain transparency instead. “Retain transparency” keeps the PNG's alpha channel, but different PDF readers or print workflows can show a different color beneath it. Check the downloaded PDF in the reader you plan to use. JPG images do not have transparency, so the background setting is relevant to PNG input.

A combined PDF is convenient when many images form one document: photographed contract pages, a sequence of receipts, or annotated screenshots for a report. It contains one page for every image in the current list. Changing the order in the list changes the page order in the exported file. Adding the same file again will not silently duplicate it. If you intentionally need a repeated page, make a separate image copy and add it with a different file identity so that the list clearly shows two entries.

Separate output is useful when each image belongs to a different case, upload slot, or recipient. Every PDF has one image page. The names begin with a two-digit position, followed by a cleaned version of the source filename; this keeps the ZIP contents easy to sort and helps you match results back to the list. A single image downloads directly as PDF because a ZIP would add an unnecessary extraction step. Multi-file output is checked by reopening each PDF before the archive is built.

The output is an image-based PDF. It places the actual picture data on PDF pages and checks the generated file's page count and sheet dimensions. An ordinary JPEG without a camera rotation instruction is embedded from its original bytes. Images requiring orientation correction and PNG background handling pass through a browser canvas; JPEG correction can involve re-encoding, while PNG conversion uses a lossless PNG format. The tool does not improve blurry photos, invent missing pixels, or promise a smaller download. Cover mode deliberately hides some image pixels outside the selected area.

Words visible inside a photo remain pixels. This tool does not perform optical character recognition, so the resulting PDF does not automatically contain searchable or selectable text. If you need a text layer, use a separate OCR workflow and verify its accuracy. Likewise, an image of a signature is not a cryptographic PDF signature. For an official submission, check the destination's resolution, file-size, page-size, and signing requirements rather than assuming that any image PDF will qualify.

Complex or unusually large images can consume considerable memory while decoding. The limits shown by the tool apply before conversion, and generated files also have a size cap. An individual damaged image is reported as skipped while other valid selections remain in the list. Processing can be cancelled and retried without changing the original files. After changing order or options, the previous download link is cleared so the visible settings match the next result.

Yes. Add the photos, arrange them in the desired order, and leave “Combine into one PDF” selected. Each photo becomes one page. Open the download to confirm the page sequence before submitting it.

Choose “Contain entire image.” This preserves the complete picture inside the page margin and may leave extra blank space. “Cover area” fills the space but clips edges when aspect ratios differ.

White is the default treatment for transparent pixels so the page looks predictable when printed. Select black or “Keep transparency” before conversion if you need another result. Preview the download in your actual PDF reader.

No. A PDF can hold an image without a text layer. OCR is a separate operation that detects characters and should be checked for recognition mistakes.

Those formats are not enabled in this tool. Convert them to a verified JPG or PNG first, then add the resulting file. Do not assume that a browser's ability to display a format means the full PDF conversion workflow has been tested for it.
