JPG to PDF
Combine one or more JPG images into a single PDF in the displayed selection order. Each image is embedded without a separate margin or paper-size setting, and each resulting PDF page uses the image’s intrinsic width and height as PDF dimensions.
How JPG images become PDF pages
This converter is useful when each source image should become one PDF page. You can add, replace, or remove JPGs before conversion, but the interface does not provide crop, rotation, paper presets, margins, or drag-to-reorder controls.
The source JPEG bytes are embedded into the PDF with pdf-lib rather than first being rendered through canvas. The image is drawn to fill its page. The PDF does not run OCR, so photographed words remain image content rather than newly created selectable text.
How to use this tool
- Select JPG images: Choose images in the sequence they should appear. The displayed list is the output page order.
- Review the list: Add, replace, or remove images. Prepare rotation and cropping beforehand because this page has no such controls.
- Convert: Start conversion while pdf-lib embeds each JPG and creates a matching page.
- Open the PDF: The PDF downloads automatically and can be downloaded again. Verify page order, orientation, and printable scale.
Input and output
Input
- One or more files accepted as image/jpeg or image/jpg
Output
- One PDF named images_converted.pdf with one page per selected image
How the PDF is assembled
Embed JPEG bytes
pdf-lib reads each selected file and embeds it as a JPEG image object.
Create matching pages
A PDF page is created using the embedded image width and height, then the image is drawn from edge to edge.
Save one document
All pages are serialized into one PDF blob and handed to the browser download function.
Combining photographed pages
- Scenario
- Three photographed worksheet pages need to be submitted as one file.
- Action
- Select them in reading order, verify the list, and convert.
- Input
- page-1.jpg, page-2.jpg, and page-3.jpg
- Expected result
- The output contains three image-only PDF pages. Page dimensions follow each image rather than a standard A4 or Letter preset.
Image-to-PDF limitations
- Only JPEG/JPG input is accepted by this route; PNG has a separate tool.
- There are no margin, orientation, page-size, crop, or quality controls.
- The displayed selection order is used, but the current interface has no drag-to-reorder control.
- No OCR is performed, so text in the images is not converted into a new searchable text layer.
- Image pixel dimensions are used as PDF page dimensions, which may not correspond to the intended physical print size.
- EXIF orientation handling depends on how the source dimensions and image bytes are interpreted; inspect rotated phone photos.
- Many high-resolution images can consume substantial browser memory and produce a large PDF.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this make photographed text searchable?
No. Each JPG is embedded as an image. Use an OCR workflow when a searchable text layer is required.
Can I choose A4, Letter, or margins?
Not in the current interface. Every page is created from the image’s intrinsic dimensions and the image fills it.
Will JPG quality be reduced?
The converter embeds the selected JPEG bytes rather than applying an explicit canvas quality setting. PDF packaging adds structure, but no configurable recompression step is used here.
