How to convert JPG to PDF
- Drop your images in. Several at once become a multi-page PDF, in the order shown.
- Reorder with the arrows, or remove any page you don't want.
- Pick a page size, then download. Nothing is uploaded at any point.
Photos of documents, scans, receipts, and screenshots all work. For iPhone HEIC photos, run them through the HEIC to JPG converter first.
Your photos are not re-compressed
A JPEG is already compressed, and PDF can store that exact compressed data as-is. This tool takes advantage of that: your JPEGs are embedded byte-for-byte, untouched. Nothing is decoded, re-encoded, or degraded.
Many converters rasterise every page instead, which re-compresses your photos and quietly loses quality — and usually inflates the file. Here the PDF ends up roughly the combined size of your original images, because that is literally what is inside it.
Why documents demand PDF
Government portals, job applications, exam boards, visa services, and HR systems almost all insist on PDF. It's a single file that can hold many pages, it looks the same everywhere, and it can't be casually edited.
So the common task is: photograph or scan something with your phone, end up with a pile of JPGs, and need one tidy PDF. That's exactly what this does. If the portal also caps the file size, compress the images first and then build the PDF.
Page size, orientation and margins
- Fit to image makes each page exactly the shape of its image, so there are no white borders. Best for photos.
- A4 or US Letter gives standard printable pages, with the image centred and scaled to fit. Best for anything being printed or submitted to a form that expects a normal page.
- Margins only apply to A4 and Letter. Choose a small margin if the recipient might print it, since most printers can't reach the very edge of the paper.
Nothing is uploaded
Everything happens in your browser. This matters more for documents than almost anything else: the files people convert to PDF are passports, bank statements, contracts, and medical letters. Most online converters send those to a server and gate you behind a signup after a few files. Here nothing is transmitted, there are no limits, and there is no account.
You can also strip camera and location data first with the EXIF and GPS remover if the photos will be shared onward.
Frequently asked questions
Does converting to PDF reduce photo quality?
No. A JPEG's compressed data is embedded into the PDF exactly as-is, so nothing is decoded or re-encoded. PNG and WebP images have to be converted to JPEG once, because PDF cannot store them directly.
Can I put several images into one PDF?
Yes. Drop them all in, reorder with the arrows, and they become pages in that order. You can also switch to a separate PDF per image.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The PDF is assembled in your browser on your own device. Nothing is transmitted, there are no file limits, and no account is needed.
Why is my PDF about the same size as my photos?
Because the original image data is what is inside it. That is the point — no bloat from rasterising, and no quality lost to re-compression. If you need it smaller, compress the images before building the PDF.
What is the difference between 'Fit to image' and A4?
Fit to image makes each page exactly the shape of its image, so there are no white borders — best for photos. A4 and Letter give standard printable pages with the image centred, which suits documents and anything being printed.
Can I convert HEIC photos from my iPhone?
Not directly, since browsers cannot read HEIC natively. Run them through the HEIC to JPG converter first, then bring the JPGs here.
