JPG to PDF converter

How to convert JPG to PDF

To convert JPG to PDF, drop your JPG files on the box above, put them in the order you want, choose the page size and click create. The PDF has one picture per page and is built inside your browser, so your files are never uploaded.

Why convert

Forms, job portals, universities, banks and government sites often ask for a single PDF, while what you have is a handful of photos or scans. Converting JPG to PDF lets you combine them into one document that opens the same on every device, prints at the right size and is easier to attach to an email than a pile of loose pictures.

How sharp a JPG page will be

A photo placed on an A4 page is as sharp as its pixels allow. Printing needs about 200 to 300 DPI, and screens are happy with far less. This table shows the effective resolution when the long side of a photo fills the 297 mm of an A4 page:

A phone photo is therefore more than enough for a page. Very large JPGs only make the PDF heavier, so reduce them first if a size limit applies.

Typical jobs and things to watch

• Photographed documents: receipts, IDs and signed forms shot with a phone, turned into one PDF for an upload.
• Photo reports: several pictures of a site, a damaged item or a property gathered into a single file.
• Watch the orientation: phone photos carry a rotation flag; the tool applies it, but check the preview.
• Watch the weight: ten 5 MB photos make a 50 MB PDF. Reduce them first if the destination has a size limit.

How it behaves

• One picture per page. Each JPG becomes one PDF page, in the order shown in the list.
• Page size: keep each picture's own size, or fit it on A4 (210 × 297 mm) or US Letter (8.5 × 11 in). Landscape pictures get a landscape page automatically.
• Margins: none, small or normal, so the picture can touch the edges or sit inside a white border.
• Quality: photos are stored as high-quality JPG inside the PDF, so a 5 MB photo does not balloon.

Tips for the best result

• Photograph documents in even light, from directly above, to avoid skewed or shadowed pages.
• If the PDF is too heavy for an upload limit, use the PDF size reducer afterwards.
• For scans of text, keep the pictures high resolution so that the text stays readable when printed.

Private by design

Everything runs in your browser using your own device. Your files are never uploaded, which matters for IDs, contracts, invoices and personal photos, and it also means there is no waiting for an upload and no size limit imposed by a server.
