Images to PDF
Convert JPG, PNG, WebP and other image formats into a PDF document. Drag to reorder.
Supported Image Formats
PDFForge can convert any image your browser can display, including JPG/JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP and TIFF. Each image becomes one page in the PDF. If an image cannot be embedded directly, PDFForge re-encodes it as PNG automatically.
Fit Mode Options
- Fit — The image is scaled to fill the page width or height (whichever is the limiting dimension) while preserving aspect ratio. A small margin is added.
- Fill — The image is stretched to cover the entire page, cropping edges if necessary.
- Original size — The image is placed at its native pixel dimensions. It may overflow or be smaller than the page.
Scan to PDF with Your Phone
You do not need a dedicated scanner to create PDF documents. Your smartphone camera is good enough for most document digitisation tasks. Take photos of each page under good lighting, then open PDFForge on your phone's browser and convert them all to PDF in one step. For best results: hold the phone parallel to the document (not at an angle), use natural side lighting to avoid flash glare on glossy paper, and take photos in landscape orientation for A4 or Letter documents. The resulting PDF will be readable and shareable without any specialised hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I convert photos from my phone to PDF?
Yes. Open PDFForge in your mobile browser, tap the drop zone, and select photos from your camera roll or gallery. The PDF downloads directly to your phone.
How many images can I add?
There is no limit enforced by PDFForge. However, adding a very large number of high-resolution images (hundreds of photos) may be slow depending on your device's memory.
Will the PDF preserve my image quality?
Yes. Images are embedded directly into the PDF without re-compression (except where the browser cannot decode the format natively, in which case they are re-encoded as lossless PNG).
Can I reorder the images before converting?
Yes. After adding images to the drop zone, thumbnail cards appear in a grid. Drag any card to reposition it — the order of the cards determines the page order in the final PDF. You can also remove individual images by clicking the delete icon on each thumbnail.
What is the difference between Fit and Fill modes?
Fit mode scales the image so that the entire image fits within the page with small margins — no cropping occurs but there may be white space at the edges. Fill mode scales the image so it covers the entire page — no white space, but edges of the image may be cropped. For photographs you typically want Fill; for document scans you typically want Fit.
