How to Convert JPG to PDF (Photos to PDF, Free)
3 min readUpdated 5 October 2026
To convert JPG to PDF, open Image to PDF, add your photos, drag them into order, choose a page size such as A4 and press Create PDF. All the images are combined into one PDF, one image per page, which downloads straight away.
It works with JPG, PNG and WebP pictures in any modern browser — on a computer, an iPhone or an Android phone — with no app to install and no account. The PDF is built on your own device, so photos of IDs, receipts or homework aren't uploaded anywhere.
Step by step
- 1Open Image to PDFGo to the Image to PDF tool. There is no sign-up and nothing to install.
- 2Add your imagesDrop JPG, PNG or WebP files onto the page, or click to choose them — you can pick many at once. Use Add images to add more later.
- 3Put them in orderEach image becomes one page. Drag the cards into the order you want, or use the arrow buttons under each one. The X button removes an image; Clear starts over.
- 4Choose the page layoutPick a Page size (A4, Letter or Fit image), an Orientation (Auto, Portrait or Landscape) and a Margin (None, Small or Large). The previews update as you change them.
- 5Create the PDFPress Create PDF (or Ctrl/⌘ + Enter). The file downloads as “images.pdf”, and Send to… lets you compress or sign it next.
Photos to PDF on iPhone and Android
On iPhone, open the tool in Safari, tap the drop area and choose “Photo Library” to select several photos at once, or “Choose File” to pick images from the Files app. On Android, tap the drop area in Chrome and pick photos from your gallery or Files.
When you press Create PDF, the file is saved to your Downloads — on iPhone that's Files › Downloads. From there you can share it on LINE, attach it to an email or upload it to a form.
Tip: If a photo shows “can't be read by this browser”, it's in a format your browser can't open. Save or export it as JPG first, then add it again.
Choosing page size, margins and fit
The defaults (A4, Auto orientation, Small margin, Fit) suit most documents. Change them when you need to:
- A4 or Letter — standard paper sizes for forms and printing. Use A4 in Thailand and most countries, Letter for the US and Canada.
- Fit image — every page takes the exact shape of its photo, with no white borders added beyond your margin. Good for screenshots and pictures you'll only view on screen.
- Auto orientation — wide photos get landscape pages and tall photos get portrait pages, so nothing ends up tiny.
- Fit vs Fill page — Fit shows the whole image; Fill page covers the page edge to edge but crops the edges of the image.
Scanning documents with your phone camera
For receipts, ID cards or signed forms, take the photo straight from above in good light, on a dark, plain background. Crop the photo in your gallery app before adding it, so the page isn't surrounded by table.
Need to search or copy the text afterwards? Images inside a PDF aren't searchable text — run the photos through OCR to pull the words out.
What to do with the PDF next
Photos keep their full resolution, so a PDF of phone photos can get large. These tools help:
- Compress PDF — shrink it to send by email or chat.
- Image Converter — resize or compress the photos themselves before turning them into a PDF.
- Merge PDF — combine it with other PDF documents.
- Organize PDF — rotate or delete individual pages.
Questions people ask
- How do I combine several JPGs into one PDF?
- Add all the images at once, arrange them in the order you want and press Create PDF. You get a single PDF with one image per page.
- Does converting images to PDF reduce quality?
- No. Images are placed at their full resolution; JPG and PNG files are usually embedded exactly as they are. That's also why the PDF can be large — compress it afterwards if needed.
- Can I convert PNG or screenshots to PDF?
- Yes. PNG, JPG and WebP all work. For screenshots, choose Fit image so each page matches the screenshot's shape.
- Is there a limit on the number of images?
- There is no fixed limit. Very large batches depend on your device's memory; if a phone struggles, create two smaller PDFs and merge them.
