When uploading, hold Ctrl (Windows) or Cmd (Mac) to select multiple images at once from your file browser. This is much faster than adding them one by one.

Tips for Best Results

Optimize Images First

Large images create large PDFs. Compress your images to reduce sizes before combining them.

Use Consistent Dimensions

For the best-looking PDF, use images with the same aspect ratio. Resize images to standardize dimensions.

Consider Orientation

Mix of landscape and portrait images? Rotate them to orient consistently first.

Use our Image Compressor, Resize Image tool, and Rotate Image to prepare your images before combining.

Working with Scanned Documents

If you're scanning multi-page documents with your phone:
  • Use a scanning app for better quality and automatic cropping
  • Scan in good lighting to avoid shadows
  • Keep your phone steady and parallel to the document
  • Save as JPG (smaller files) rather than PNG

After Creating Your PDF

Once you have your PDF, you might want to:

Privacy Note

All image processing happens directly in your browser. Your images are never uploaded to any server. This means your photos and documents stay completely private.
