How to convert JPG to PDF
Updated
Contents
To turn JPG photos into a single PDF, open the JPG to PDF tool on pdf.xyz, pick your images, put them in order, and create the PDF right in your browser. Each photo becomes one page of the finished file.
What sets this converter apart is where the work happens: entirely in your own browser. Nothing is sent to a server, so your photos stay on your device from the moment you pick them to the moment you save the finished PDF — and no account is needed.
Each image can be up to 25 MB, and the output is one PDF assembled on your device. That makes the tool a natural fit for photographed receipts, scanned pages saved as JPGs, or any batch of pictures that belongs together in a single file.
Step by step
- 1Open the JPG to PDF tool.
- 2Pick the JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, or BMP images you want in the PDF — they stay on your device the whole time.
- 3Put them in page order with the up and down arrows on each photo.
- 4Create the PDF — it is assembled in your browser, not on a server.
- 5Save the finished PDF to your device.
What each page looks like
Each image goes on its own page, centred. Unless you change the page setup, that page is US Letter (8.5 × 11 in) portrait with a 0.5 in margin. Larger images are scaled down to fit; smaller ones are never enlarged. Fit to image makes each page the size of its image instead, plus the margin.
Page size: Fit to image, A4, US Letter, US Legal, A3 or A5. Orientation: Auto, Portrait or Landscape (Auto turns the page for a wide image). Margin: None, Small (0.25 in) or Large (0.5 in). The same setup applies to every photo, which keeps a stack of mismatched pictures reading as one document. A phone photo stored sideways with a rotation tag is turned upright, the way your browser shows it.
Your photos never leave your device
JPG to PDF is an in-browser tool. The conversion runs on your own machine, and your files stay on your device from start to finish — there is no server step in the path, and no account is needed.
One honest caveat: the tool is not fully offline. The page and its processing engine load over the network, and parts of the engine are fetched the first time a step needs them. The processing itself runs on your device.
Common questions
Does my photo leave my device when I convert JPG to PDF?
No. The tool runs entirely in your browser, so your files stay on your device from start to finish.
Can I combine multiple JPG photos into one PDF?
Yes — that is exactly what the tool does. Each photo becomes one page of a single PDF, in the order you set with the up and down arrows on each photo.
Does JPG to PDF have page size or margin settings?
Yes. Page size: Fit to image, A4, US Letter, US Legal, A3 or A5. Orientation: Auto, Portrait or Landscape (Auto turns the page for a wide image). Margin: None, Small (0.25 in) or Large (0.5 in). If you change nothing, every image goes on a US Letter (8.5 × 11 in) portrait page with a 0.5 in margin, scaled down to fit if it is larger than that space.
How large can my JPG files be?
Up to 25 MB per file. The images are combined into one PDF right on your device.
Does JPG to PDF work offline?
Not fully. The page and its processing engine load over the network, and parts of the engine are fetched the first time a step needs them. The processing itself runs on your device.
Can I convert PNG images with this tool?
Yes. JPG to PDF takes PNG images too, transparent ones included, alongside your JPGs in the same PDF, and WebP, GIF, and BMP images as well. PNG to PDF accepts the same files and works the same way.
