How to turn several photos into one PDF
Updated 2026-10-25
Expense claims, visa applications and online homework portals often want one PDF, while what you have is a camera roll full of photos. Putting them into a single PDF keeps them in order and makes them one upload instead of ten.
Step by step
- 1Open JPG to PDFSelect your JPG or PNG images. They are read in your browser only.
- 2Arrange themPut the images in the order the pages should appear, and choose the page size and margins.
- 3Create and downloadBuild the PDF and download it. If it is large, run it through Compress PDF before uploading.
iPhone photos that will not open
Recent iPhones save photos as HEIC by default. If your photos are HEIC, share them via the Files app or email, which usually converts them to JPG, or set Settings → Camera → Formats → Most Compatible so future photos are saved as JPG.
Photographing paper? Use the scanner instead
For documents, Scan to PDF uses your camera directly and produces cleaner, flatter pages than ordinary photos. It is the better choice for contracts, forms and letters.
Questions
- Will the images lose quality?
- The images are placed into the PDF as they are. The file can be large if your photos are large; compress it afterwards if a portal has a size limit.
Your file stays on your device the whole time.
