You can select one static image file.

Converting files is free. You can select images between 32 and 8000px in both width and height.

How to convert JPG to PDF

1. Upload your JPG

Drag a JPG file onto the upload area, or click [Select JPG file] to choose one. Both .jpg and .jpeg files work, as long as they're 100 MB or smaller.

2. Sign in, then click [Download PDF]

Sign in before you click [Download PDF]. The editor then opens with your photo on the page and a download panel already set to PDF (web). If you sign in after the editor opens, your photo won't carry over and you'll have to upload it again.

3. Add pages for more photos

If you only have one photo, skip to step 5. To combine several photos, close the panel, click [Add page], and upload the rest of your JPGs from the [Upload] menu on the left, one per page. Your PDF will follow the page order in the editor.

4. Choose PDF (web) again

Click [Download] at the top right to reopen the panel. It may show a different format this time, so pick PDF (web) under [File format] and make sure [Select page] is set to [All pages].

5. Save as PDF

Click [High resolution download] to save your PDF. If you added more photos, they'll all be in that file.

When you need a PDF, not a JPG

Many online forms and portals only accept PDFs. If all you have is a JPG photo of the document, you'll need to convert it before you can upload it.

A PDF looks the same on any device. And for whoever you're sending it to, one PDF is easier to go through than a pile of separate photos.

Merge JPG photos into one PDF

If you photographed a multi-page document one sheet at a time, put each photo on its own page in the editor. When you download, choose PDF (web) and [All pages], and you'll get one file with every page in order.

Free to use, with nothing to install and no limit on PDF downloads

Everything happens in your browser. If a photo came out too dark, you can adjust its brightness and contrast under [Filter] before you download. PDF downloads are unlimited, even on the Free plan.

Original JPEG quality for files up to 23 MB

If you upload a JPG here and download it as PDF (web) without editing it, the original photo goes into the PDF without being compressed again. Files over 23 MB are compressed before they open in the editor, so quality may drop slightly. If you crop or apply a filter, the PDF gets the edited version.

Save a PDF for sharing or for printing

Use PDF (web) for email attachments and online forms. If you're printing at home or at the office, choose PDF (for print) under [File format] in the download panel.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Can I turn PNG or WebP images into a PDF?

Yes, just not on this page, since it only takes JPG files. For a PNG or WebP image, use one of the converters below.

How do I save a JPG as a PDF on Windows or Mac?

On Windows, print the photo and choose Microsoft Print to PDF as the printer. On a Mac, Preview can export the image as a PDF. If you want several photos in a specific order, or need to add text, put it all together in the MiriCanvas editor and download the PDF from there.

Will my PDF be A4 or letter size?

Neither. The page size comes from the first JPG you upload, and any pages you add match it. So a landscape photo gives you a landscape PDF.
