Why convert PNG to PDF?
PNG files are best for screenshots, logos and graphics with sharp edges or transparency. PDF is the better choice for documents that must print and look identical everywhere. It opens in every browser and operating system, while PNG opens in every browser, phone and image editor.
PDF is lossless, so nothing your PNG file contains is thrown away on the way.

What happens to your file
A PDF is assembled in your browser with jsPDF. Images are placed on a page exactly their own size, so nothing is cropped or stretched. Text is set on A4 pages with sensible margins and wraps automatically across as many pages as it needs.
Tips for a clean conversion
- Drop a whole folder's worth of PNG files at once. They convert one after another and you can download everything as a single ZIP.
- Keep your original PNG files until you have checked the results. Converting back later is rarely lossless.
- PDF keeps everything it receives, so the result is only ever as good as the PNG file you start with.
