White space around each image: small is 5 mm, medium 10 mm, large 20 mm. Ignored when page size is the same as the image.
Fit shows the whole image with white space if the shapes differ; fill covers the page and crops the edges; actual size places it at its print size from DPI.
Put 2 or 4 images on each page in a grid, for ID cards front and back or contact sheets.
Custom page width in millimetres (A4 is 210 mm).
Custom page height in millimetres (A4 is 297 mm).
One PDF with a page per image, or a separate PDF for every image downloaded as a ZIP.
The order you added the files (drag to rearrange), alphabetical by file name, or by the date the photo was taken.
JPEG quality of photos inside the PDF. 85 keeps them sharp; with a target size this is the starting point.

Your photos become A4 pages in the order you took them, so a stack of receipts or a multi-page letter reads front to back without sorting.
From camera roll to one document
Most paperwork now starts as a photo. You snap a lease agreement on the kitchen table, the pages of a school assignment, a stack of expense receipts or both sides of an ID card, and then someone asks for "a PDF". Sending twelve separate pictures works badly: they arrive in a random order, mail apps resize some of them, and the recipient cannot print them as one set.
This preset is set up for that situation. Pages are A4 with a small margin, so the PDF prints cleanly on standard paper and looks like a document rather than a photo album. Photos are ordered by Date taken, the timestamp your phone stores in every picture, so the page you photographed first comes first. Everything you add goes into a single PDF.
No app has to be installed and no account is needed, which matters when the photos show personal papers. The upload happens over an encrypted connection, the pictures are processed once, and nothing is kept for a gallery or shared with anyone. You can do the whole job in the browser on the same phone that took the pictures.
50
photos in one PDF, each up to 95 MB.
Phone pictures of several megabytes fit easily. For a longer document, make two PDFs and join them with Merge PDF.
JPG photos from Android phones and HEIC photos from iPhones can sit in the same batch. HEIC is Apple's default camera format, so a mixed family or office set is common, and converting each file to JPG first would only cost time and a little quality. PNG screenshots and WebP images saved from websites are accepted as well.

Photo to PDF questions
Can I mix iPhone HEIC photos and Android JPG photos in one PDF?
Yes. Both are accepted in the same batch, along with PNG, WebP and most other image types. You do not need to convert HEIC to JPG first.
Why are my pages in the wrong order?
This preset sorts by Date taken, the time stored in each photo. Photos without that information, such as images saved from a chat app, may land in a different place. Switch Page order to As added and drag the files, or to File name for numbered scans.
My photo of a document is sideways. Will it be fixed?
Usually. Auto orient reads the rotation your phone recorded and turns the image upright. If the phone recorded it wrongly, rotate the photo in your gallery before adding it.
Can I make the photos look like a scan, with white paper?
This tool places photos as they are; it does not flatten or whiten the page. Take the picture straight from above in daylight for the cleanest result, or use your phone's built-in document scanner and convert its output here.
The PDF of my photos is too large to email. What can I do?
Set PDF file size to Target size and enter the limit your mail service or portal states. The photos are recompressed, and reduced in pixels if needed, until the whole PDF fits.
Can each photo become its own PDF?
Yes. Change Output to One PDF per image and you get a separate file for every picture, which suits forms that want each document uploaded on its own.
Taking photos that read well as pages
The converter places each photo as it is, so the result depends on the picture. A few habits make the difference between a PDF that looks like a scan and one that looks like a snapshot of a table. They take seconds and matter more than any setting on this page.
Check the pictures once before you convert. Delete the blurry duplicate you took by accident, and make sure every page of a multi-page letter is there. A missing page is easy to spot in a gallery of thumbnails and annoying to fix once the PDF has been sent. If you photographed pages out of order, set Page order to As added and drag them into place in the file list; the PDF then follows the list exactly, from top to bottom.
Do
- Hold the phone flat above the page, so the edges of the paper stay straight and parallel.
- Use daylight or an even ceiling light, and step aside so your shadow does not fall on the paper.
- Fill the frame with the page; a tight shot gives larger, sharper text on the A4 sheet.
Avoid
- Flash on glossy paper or laminated cards, which leaves a white glare spot over the text.
- Photos forwarded through chat apps, which are often reduced in size and lose their date taken.
Settings you may want to change
Page size can be switched to Letter for the United States and Canada, or to Same as image if you want each page to follow the shape of its photo. With Images per page set to 2, the front and back of an ID card share one sheet; with 4, a set of small receipts fits on a single page.
If an upload portal limits the file size, switch PDF file size to Target size and type its limit. For a PDF that will be kept for years, for example in a records system, turn on PDF/A under Quality & metadata. Location and camera details are removed by default, which is wise when the photos were taken at home.
Uploaded photos are deleted after the PDF is created, and the PDF itself after 30 minutes. For other layouts and file types, see the main Image to PDF tool, and for iPhone pictures in particular, the HEIC to PDF page explains what happens to Live Photos and portrait shots.
