Turn ordered JPG or PNG images into a PDF

Each selected image becomes a real PDF page. Choose fitted, A4 or US Letter paper, margins, orientation and image quality before local creation.

For a reliable result

  1. Choose JPG or PNG files and arrange their page order.
  2. Select paper size, orientation, margins and quality.
  3. Create the PDF and verify page count and orientation before download.

What changes

Images are normalized onto a white raster and embedded once per page. Source image metadata is not copied.

Check the download

Look for unintended borders, clipped content and portrait/landscape changes. Fitted pages follow the image proportions rather than standard paper.

Know before processing

Input count, source pixels and output bytes are device-bounded. This does not create searchable text from photographed writing.

Quick answers

Will text in the images become searchable?
No. Each JPG or PNG becomes a visual PDF page. Run searchable PDF OCR afterward if photographed or scanned writing must be searchable and copyable.
Do image order and paper settings matter?
Yes. The displayed image order becomes the page order, while paper size, orientation and margins determine how each image is fitted. Preview those choices before creating the file.

Turn an ordered set of pictures into readable PDF pages

Published by PDF for Free · Updated

Choose JPG or PNG images and this tool creates one PDF page for each accepted image, in the order shown. Use it for photographs, screenshots or scanned pages that need to travel together as one document. Check the list before creating the PDF; filenames alone do not decide the final reading order.

Images are decoded, placed on a white background and encoded as JPEG page images. This means a PNG is not embedded as an untouched lossless original, and transparent areas become white. The Image quality choice affects JPEG encoding; it cannot recover detail absent from the source picture.

Choose a paper layout for the destination

Your situationRecommended approach
The file needs to print on standard paper.Choose A4 or US Letter. Auto for each page uses the image's shape to choose portrait or landscape; select a fixed orientation if every sheet must face the same way.
You want pages shaped around each image.Choose Fit each image. Its page dimensions follow the processed image plus the selected margin; this is not a promise to preserve camera DPI or a known physical print size.
Photographed text must become searchable.Create and inspect the image PDF first, then use a separate OCR workflow. Placing a photo on a PDF page does not turn the writing inside it into selectable text.

Create a landscape A4 page from the sample picture

The synthetic document-photo.png is 1200 × 800 pixels. Its text and colour blocks provide visible details to compare before and after JPEG encoding.

  1. Select Add images and choose document-photo.png. Check the displayed image dimensions and the one-item page list.
  2. Set Page size to A4 and Paper orientation to Auto for each page. Set Margin (mm) to 8.
  3. Leave Rotate photos at Keep upright and choose Balanced for Image quality. Select Create PDF.
  4. Download the result and open it in a PDF viewer. Check that there is one landscape A4 page, with the image centred and all source content visible.

Expected result. The landscape image should produce a landscape A4 page, approximately 297 × 210 mm. Its proportions should be retained inside the available area. Extra blank space can remain because the image's shape differs from the page area inside the margins.

Check the downloaded result

  • Compare the output page count with the accepted image list and inspect the page order. Save and open the PDF before removing images or starting another job.
  • Inspect fine text, line drawings and image edges at the intended reading or printing size. JPEG encoding can soften details even when the source was a PNG screenshot.
  • Check orientation on every page when combining portrait and landscape pictures. Auto can produce a mixed-orientation PDF by design.
  • Compare transparent regions, colours and margins with the source. The output has a white background, and the tool is not a colour-managed print-proofing workflow.

Troubleshooting

The page has larger blank bands than the margin I chose.

The image is fitted proportionally rather than stretched or cropped. Different image and paper shapes leave additional unused space beyond the minimum margin.

Try this: Try the other paper orientation or Fit each image, then inspect its page dimensions if a specific print size matters.

A transparent picture has a white background or small text looks softer.

The tool flattens each source on white and uses JPEG encoding. Higher quality reduces some compression artefacts but does not preserve transparency or guarantee identical pixels.

Try this: Use High quality and compare from the original source. Use a different workflow if transparent or lossless image embedding is a requirement.

An image is rejected or a large batch fails.

Only JPG and PNG inputs are supported here. Image count, combined bytes, source pixels and output size are also limited for the current device.

Try this: Convert another format first, check the limits shown by the picker, or process a smaller batch. Large accepted images may be reduced to the device's raster limit.

Limits and compatibility

Ordering and settings
Use the up/down controls beside images to change their order. The chosen quality, margin and manual rotation apply across the batch. Identical selections matched by filename, byte size and modification time are deduplicated.
Metadata and local processing
Image processing and PDF creation run locally, with a browser fallback when worker image processing is unavailable. Source image metadata is not copied into the new JPEGs; the generated PDF has its own document properties and still contains any identifying text visible in the pictures.

Your files and form values are processed on this device. Downloaded copies remain wherever you save them. See how to check local processing and our privacy policy for site data and optional services.

Common questions

Can I put several images on one PDF page?
This tool makes one page per image. Create the PDF first and use N-up PDF if you need several resulting pages arranged on one sheet.
Does Keep upright automatically fix every sideways photo?
It applies no extra manual rotation. The decoding path uses image orientation information, but you should still check the appearance and use the rotation control when needed.
