Combine JPG, PNG, and WebP images into a single PDF with page size controls.

When to use JPG to PDF
Creating a PDF from images is ideal for scans, photo receipts, screenshots, and design exports that need to be shared as one document.
The tool embeds each image on its own page and lets you choose the page size and orientation.
Steps
Open JPG to PDF and upload the images in the order you want them to appear.
Choose a page size, orientation, and margin.
Click JPG to PDF, preview the result, and download your document.
Image order and quality
The upload list order becomes the page order. Remove and re-add files to change the order, or use Rearrange PDF after creating the file.
Keep source images at the resolution you need; the tool renders decoded images before embedding them, rather than preserving the original compressed image data.
Build a readable receipt packet
For five receipt photos, crop away the desk background and correct sideways photos before adding them. The expected PDF has five pages in the displayed file order. Choose A4 or Letter when the recipient expects a standard print size; choose Fit image only when variable page sizes are acceptable.
Auto orientation uses image width and height, not recognition of upright text. A sideways portrait receipt photographed in a wide image can still appear sideways. Adding a larger page or increasing display size cannot recover detail missing from a blurry source.
Check dimensions, legibility, and file size
Open all five output pages and confirm the store name, date, total, and edges of each receipt are visible. Check the print preview if the packet will be printed, because screen zoom can hide that the content prints too small.
Each image is decoded and rendered through a canvas, then embedded as PNG. Original compressed image bytes and camera metadata are not promised to survive, and JPG photos can produce a larger PDF. The resulting page images do not acquire searchable text; use OCR separately if that is needed.
