How to convert Images to PDF

  1. Add your images. Drag in JPG, PNG, WebP or HEIC files, or click to browse. Select as many as you like — they can be added in several batches.
  2. Put them in order. Drag the thumbnails to rearrange. Each image becomes one page, in the order shown.
  3. Set page options. Choose A4, Letter or a page that matches each image exactly, then pick orientation, margin and how images should fit the page.
  4. Create the PDF. Click Create PDF and save the result. No watermark, no page limit.

Fit, fill or exact — what the page options do

How an image maps onto a page is the setting people most often get wrong, so it is worth thirty seconds of explanation.

  • Fit — the whole image is scaled to fit inside the page, adding white bars where the aspect ratios differ. Nothing is ever cropped. This is the safe default for documents.
  • Fill — the image is scaled to cover the page completely, cropping whatever overflows. Good for photo books, risky for documents where an edge might carry text.
  • Exact — each page is created at the image's own dimensions, so there are no bars and no cropping, but pages may vary in size. Best when the images are already scans of paper.

Turning phone photos of documents into a usable PDF

The most common use of this tool is not photography — it is someone who was asked for a PDF and only has photos taken with a phone.

Two things make the difference between a PDF that gets accepted and one that gets bounced back. First, use Fit rather than Fill, so no part of the document can be cropped away. Second, check the orientation: phones store rotation as metadata, and a photo that looks upright in your gallery can land sideways. The thumbnails here show the true orientation, so what you see is what you get.

If the resulting file is too large for the portal you are uploading to — very likely, since modern phone photos are several megabytes each — run it through Compress PDF afterwards.

Why this stays on your device

Photos carry more than what is in the frame. Images from a phone typically embed EXIF metadata including the exact GPS coordinates where the shot was taken, the device model, and the timestamp. Uploading a photo of a document to a conversion service hands over all of that alongside the document itself.

Because this tool runs in your browser, none of it is transmitted. The PDF is assembled locally, and the conversion drops EXIF data rather than carrying it into the output — so the PDF you share does not quietly announce where you were standing.

Frequently asked questions

What image formats are supported?

JPG, PNG, WebP and GIF work everywhere. HEIC photos from iPhones work in browsers that can decode them, which includes Safari and recent versions of Chrome.

Are my photos uploaded anywhere?

No. Images are read directly by your browser and assembled into a PDF locally. Their embedded GPS and device metadata is never transmitted, and is dropped from the output.

Can I put more than one image on a page?

Not currently — each image becomes its own page. For contact-sheet style layouts, combine the images beforehand and add the result as a single file.

Why is my image sideways in the PDF?

Phone cameras record rotation as metadata rather than rotating the pixels, and not every app honours it. The thumbnails here show the true orientation, so rotate before creating the PDF and it will come out right.

The PDF is huge. How do I shrink it?

Phone photos are several megabytes each, so twenty of them makes a large PDF. Run the result through Compress PDF — image-heavy files like this typically shrink by 70% or more.

Does the image quality get reduced?

Only if you choose to scale down. At default settings images are embedded at their original resolution, so the PDF looks exactly like the source files.

Can I add a scanned document I photographed?

Yes, and it is the most common use of this tool. Use the Fit option so nothing is cropped, and consider the Scan to PDF tool instead if you want automatic edge detection and contrast cleanup.
