About the HEIC to PDF
iPhones save photos as HEIC, a format many websites, forms and Windows computers still can't open. When you need to send photos of receipts, documents or ID as one PDF, this converter does it in your browser. Add one or many HEIC photos (JPG and PNG can be mixed in), put them in order, choose the page size, orientation and margin, and download a single PDF with one photo per page. The photos are decoded on your device with libheif, so nothing is uploaded.

How to use the HEIC to PDF
- 1Select HEIC photos from your iPhone or computer.
- 2Put them in order with the arrows.
- 3Choose the page size, orientation and margin.
- 4Press Convert to PDF.
- 5Download the PDF.
Typical uses
Sending receipts for expenses, photos of signed forms, ID documents for applications, handwritten notes and pictures for school assignments. Turning them into one PDF keeps them together in the right order.
Page size and margins
A4 and Letter fit each picture on a standard page with the margin you choose, turning the page sideways for wide pictures when orientation is set to Auto. Same as image makes every page exactly the size of its picture, with no border, which suits presentations and photo books.
- A4: most of the world
- Letter: USA and Canada
- Same as image: no white border
Quality and size
Photos are saved at their full resolution as JPG at 92% quality, which keeps text in photographed documents sharp. For email limits, run the PDF through Compress PDF or choose a smaller target size there.
How HEIC is decoded
HEIC uses HEVC video compression, which browsers can't always read. The page loads libheif, an open-source decoder, only when you convert, and runs it in the background so the page stays responsive.
Photographing documents well
For readable document photos, use daylight or a bright lamp, hold the phone straight above the page, and fill the frame with the paper. Our Scan to PDF tool can also straighten and clean up document photos before making a PDF.
If the PDF is too big
Pictures make PDFs large. If the file is over an email or upload limit, open it in our Compress PDF tool and pick a target size such as 1 MB or 500 KB; it shrinks the pictures while keeping them readable. Removing pages you don't need with Delete PDF Pages also helps.
Phone and computer
Pick files from your phone's gallery or files app, or drop them on the page on a computer. The PDF downloads straight to your device.

Frequently asked questions
Why can't I upload my iPhone photo to a form?
Many forms accept only PDF, JPG or PNG. HEIC is Apple's space-saving format, so converting it to PDF solves the problem.
Can I put several photos in one PDF?
Yes. Add as many as you like; each becomes one page in the order shown.
Will the photos be the right way up?
Yes. The rotation saved by the camera is applied while decoding.
How big will the PDF be?
Each photo is stored as a high-quality JPG, typically 1–3 MB per photo. Use Compress PDF afterwards if you need a smaller file.
Can I change the page order?
Yes. Use the up and down arrows next to each file before converting; pages follow the list from top to bottom.
Are my files uploaded?
No. The pictures are read and the PDF is built in your browser, so nothing leaves your device.
Can I stop my iPhone saving HEIC?
Yes: Settings > Camera > Formats > Most Compatible makes the iPhone save JPG instead.
