How to use Image to PDF

Turn photos, scans and screenshots into one PDF in your browser.

  1. Choose one or more images.
  2. Put them in page order with the arrows, and remove any you do not want.
  3. Choose the page size, orientation, margin and quality.
  4. Create the PDF and download it.

Good to know

  • Nothing is uploaded; the images stay on your device.
  • To make the PDF smaller, lower the quality or shrink the images with the image resizer first.

Put photos, scans or screenshots into one PDF, one image per page.

Runs in your browser. Nothing you type is uploaded or saved in the link.

Images

The pictures to put in the PDF, one per page. They are opened in your browser and never uploaded.

How to fill it in

  • Choose JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF or BMP files, up to 30 MB each and 50 in all.
  • You can add more later; use the arrows to change the page order.

Example

A portrait phone photo fills 190.0 × 253.3 mm of an A4 page with 10 mm margins.

Page size

The paper size of every page.

How to fill it in

  • A4 (210 × 297 mm) is the usual size in India.
  • Letter is 8.5 × 11 inches.
  • Fit makes each page the size of its image, at 96 pixels per inch.

Example

With Fit, a 1024 × 768 pixel image gives a 270.9 × 203.2 mm page.

Orientation

Whether pages stand upright or lie sideways.

How to fill it in

  • Auto turns each page to match its image.
  • Portrait or Landscape forces every page.

Example

With Auto, a sideways photo gets a 297.0 × 210.0 mm landscape page.

Margin (mm)

White space left on every side of each image.

How to fill it in

  • Enter a whole number from 0 to 50.
  • Use 0 for edge-to-edge scans.

Tip: Many printers cannot print the outer 3 to 5 mm.

JPEG quality

How much detail is kept when each image is saved into the PDF.

How to fill it in

  • Enter a whole number from 50 to 100.
  • Lower makes a smaller file; 85 to 90 suits most documents.

Keep in mind: Every image is re-saved as JPEG, so transparent areas turn white.

Result

Choose one or more images to start.

How this calculator works

  1. Step 1Open locallyNo uploadEach image is decoded on your device.
  2. Step 2Fit the pagekeep aspectScaled to fit inside the margins and centred.
  3. Step 3Write the PDFone per pageEach image is saved as JPEG inside the file.

Each image becomes one page. The tool scales it to fit inside the margins without stretching, and centres it on the page.

Pages are A4 (210 × 297 mm, ISO 216), US Letter, or the size of each image at 96 pixels per inch. PDF measures in points, 72 to an inch.

Worked example: a phone photo on A4

A 3000 × 4000 pixel photo, A4, 10 mm margins
Scale
smaller of box width ÷ image width and box height ÷ image height
  1. Page210 × 297 mm
  2. Space inside margins(210 − 20) × (297 − 20)190 × 277 mm
  3. Image on the pagewidth limits: 190 mm190.0 × 253.3 mm
  4. Top and bottom gap21.8 mm

The width runs out first, so the photo fills the width and leaves equal white space above and below.

Read the result

  • Sideways photo, Auto297.0 × 210.0 mmAuto turns the page to landscape to match.
  • Screenshot on A4155.8 × 277.0 mmA tall phone screenshot fills the height instead.

With Fit, each page is its image’s size: a 1024 × 768 picture makes a 270.9 × 203.2 mm page with no white border.

Assumptions and limits

  • PrivateNothing is uploaded; the PDF is built on your device.
  • Up to 50 images30 MB each and 200 MB in all.
  • No text layerPages are pictures; text is not searchable.
  • JPEG insideTransparent areas become white.

Smaller images make a smaller PDF.

To shrink photos before combining them, use the image compressor or the image resizer. For form uploads, the photo and signature resizer sets exact sizes.

Common mistakes

  • Mistake: Adding pages out of order.

    Instead: Use the arrows to fix the order before creating the PDF.

  • Mistake: Using 0 mm margins for printing.

    Instead: Most printers cannot print the outer few millimetres.

  • Mistake: Uploading huge scans to a portal with a size limit.

    Instead: Lower the quality, or resize the images first.

Checking the method

A separate script re-works every page layout in exact fractions from 72 points per inch and the A4 and Letter sizes.

Frequently asked questions

Are my images uploaded?

No. They are opened and turned into a PDF in your browser, and the file is saved straight to your device.

How big is the image on an A4 page?

A portrait 3000 × 4000 phone photo with 10 mm margins fills 190.0 × 253.3 mm, centred on the page.

What does Auto orientation do?

It turns each page to match its image. A sideways photo gets a 297.0 × 210.0 mm landscape page.

What does Fit page size mean?

Each page is the size of its image at 96 pixels per inch, so a 1024 × 768 image makes a 270.9 × 203.2 mm page.

Can I search the text in the PDF?

No. Each page is a picture; the tool does not recognise text.

Sources and methodology

The formulas are standard time-value-of-money results. We check every figure against golden values worked out independently, by closed form and by month-by-month simulation; see the methodology.
