Convert images to PDF (JPG, PNG, WEBP and more)
How to turn a photo or scanned image into a single PDF page, plus what to watch for with transparent backgrounds, rotation and file size.
You often need to turn a photo into a PDF to submit a document. DocDori converts an image into a single PDF page inside your browser, without uploading it to a server.
How to do it
- Open a PNG, JPG, WEBP, GIF or BMP image in the Workspace.
- Check the orientation and content in the preview. Rotation information from phone photos (EXIF) is applied in the display.
- Press ‘Download converted PDF’ and the image is saved as one PDF page.
Good to know
- Transparent areas are flattened onto a white background.
- For animated GIF and WEBP files, only the first frame is used.
- Very large images are scaled down so the long edge is at most 4,096 pixels. Large files may be reduced further.
- To combine several images into one PDF, convert each image to PDF and then join them with Merge PDFs.
- OCR, which turns text in an image into searchable text, is not provided.
When this comes in handy
- When submitting a photo of your ID or a bank account statement to a place that only accepts PDFs
- When turning a receipt photographed on your phone into a PDF for an expense claim
- When archiving photos of handwritten notes or a whiteboard as documents
Frequently asked questions
My photo is saved lying on its side. Rotation information from phone photos is applied in the display. If the orientation is still wrong, convert it to PDF and then turn it with Rotate PDF before saving.
The photo contains personal information. Is it uploaded anywhere? The image is never sent to a server; it is turned into a PDF only inside your browser. You should still check for yourself where you send the converted PDF.
