How to Create a PDF from Images for Free
April 12, 2026 4 min read
You scanned several pages of a document with your phone camera and now have 10 separate JPG files. You need them as a single PDF. Or you have product photos that need to go into a catalog. Creating a PDF from images is straightforward with the right tool.
How to Combine Images into a PDF
- Open the Image to PDF tool on LoveConverts.
- Upload your images. Drag and drop up to 30 images. They appear in the order you upload them.
- Arrange the pages. Drag to reorder if needed.
- Choose page settings. Select paper size (A4, Letter, etc.) and orientation.
- Click "Create PDF" and download your document.
Best Practices for Clean PDFs
- Scan at 300 DPI or higher for text documents. Lower resolutions make text hard to read.
- Crop before combining. Use the crop tool to remove borders, fingers, or desk surfaces from phone-scanned documents.
- Straighten tilted scans. The photo editor can rotate images slightly to fix tilted scans.
- Compress first if file size matters. Compress your images before creating the PDF to keep the final file small.
Common Use Cases
- Document scanning: Combine phone photos of multi-page documents into a proper PDF.
- Photo portfolios: Create a PDF portfolio to share with clients or employers.
- Product catalogs: Combine product photos into a browsable catalog.
- Receipts and records: Archive multiple receipt photos into a single organized PDF.
Going the Other Direction
If you need to extract images from a PDF, use the PDF to Image tool. It converts each page back into a separate image file.
