How to convert PNG to PDF online

A PNG file goes into the MiriCanvas editor, where the download panel's File format is set to PDF (web), and comes out as a PDF file

1. Upload your PNG

Drag a PNG file onto the upload area, or click [Select PNG file] to choose one. Files over 100 MB can't be uploaded.

2. Sign in, then click [Download PDF]

Sign in before you click [Download PDF]. The editor then opens with your PNG on the canvas and the download panel already showing. If you sign in after the editor opens, your image won't carry over and you'll have to upload it again.

3. Add a title or note if needed

If you only need the PDF, skip this step. Otherwise, close the download panel and add your text to the canvas.

4. Check the file format

When the download panel first opens, PDF (web) is already selected. If you closed it to edit, reopen it with [Download] at the top right. This time it may show a different format, so pick PDF (web) under [File format], or PDF (for print) if you're printing.

5. Save your PDF

Click [High resolution download] to save the file. You'll get a one-page PDF with your PNG and any text you added.

When you need to change a PNG to a PDF

Screenshots of error messages and receipts, or charts exported from your slides, are often saved as PNGs. But a school, a client, or an online form may only accept PDFs.

Once it's a PDF, whoever you send it to can easily open or print it. If you have several screenshots, you can add pages in the editor and send them all in one PDF.

A PDF page the same size as your PNG

A long scrolling screenshot stays on one page instead of being split up, though images taller than 8,000 px can't be uploaded. The page also won't be resized to Letter or A4.

Transparent areas show up white in the PDF

When you download a PNG with a transparent background as PDF (web), the empty areas appear white. A signature or logo with its background removed will look like it's printed on white paper.

Add text or adjust brightness before you save your PNG as a PDF

Add a title and source to a chart, or put a short note next to the part of a screenshot that matters. If the text in your screenshot is hard to read, try adjusting the brightness and contrast under [Filter] before you download.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

How do I combine multiple PNGs into one PDF?

In the editor, click [Add page] and add your other PNGs from the [Upload] menu on the left, one per page. New pages are the same size as your first PNG, so shrink any larger screenshots to fit. When you download, choose PDF (web) under [File format] and [All pages] under [Select page] to merge them into a single PDF. You can combine JPGs the same way.

Is a PNG the same as a PDF?

No. A PNG is handy when you're adding a picture to slides or a blog post. A PDF can hold several pages in one file, so it's the usual choice when you're submitting or printing a document.

Can I convert an animated PNG (APNG) to PDF?

No. Animated PNGs can't be uploaded, even if the file name ends in .png. Use a still PNG instead.
