Convert JPEG to PDF
JPEG compresses photographs by discarding detail the eye is least likely to notice, which makes photo files small. Converting it to PDF gives you a file suited to contracts, invoices, reports, forms and anything meant to be printed or archived.

About the formats
About JPEG
JPEG compresses photographs by discarding detail the eye is least likely to notice, which makes photo files small. It is normally used for photographs, camera output and images on the web. It cannot store transparency, and every re-save discards a little more detail.
About PDF
PDF fixes a document's layout so it looks the same wherever it is opened, which is why it is the usual format for anything final. It is normally used for contracts, invoices, reports, forms and anything meant to be printed or archived. A PDF is designed to be read rather than edited, so changing the text after the fact is awkward.
What to expect
- The PDF page is sized to match the image exactly.
What happens to your file
This conversion runs entirely in your browser. The file is never uploaded - it is read by the page, converted on your own device, and the result is offered straight back to you.
Questions
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. This one runs in your browser, so the file never leaves your device. You can watch that yourself in your browser's network tab - there is no upload request.
Does converting JPEG to PDF reduce quality?
PDF discards nothing, so no further detail is lost. It cannot recover what JPEG compression already removed, though, and the resulting file will normally be larger than the original.
How big a file can I convert?
There is no upload limit, because nothing is uploaded. Very large images are limited only by the memory your own browser can give the page.
