FAQ
- Can I reorder the pages?
- We arrange pages in the exact order you upload them. To change the sequence, remove files and add them back in your preferred order. We plan to release a drag-and-drop reordering feature soon.
- What should I do if the PDF file size is too large?
- High-resolution source files can result in a PDF of several Megabytes. Compress or shrink your images first using our "Resize image" tool, then combine them to create a compact, high-quality PDF.
- Can I use this tool for scanned documents and agreements?
- Absolutely. Select A4 portrait for standard documents to prepare them for printing or email attachments. We process all files locally on your device, ensuring complete privacy.
Wrapping Images in a PDF Doesn't Improve Them
Worth clearing up first: a PDF is a container for images, not a tool that enhances them. A blurry photo becomes a PDF containing a blurry photo. If you're converting because something needs printing, what determines the print quality is the pixel count of your original image, not the file format.
The real benefits lie elsewhere. Several images become one ordered document, the layout holds no matter which device opens it, and printing maps cleanly onto paper. Attaching a single file to an email instead of twelve is no small thing either.
Photos and Paper Have Different Proportions
This is where most awkward-looking results come from. A4 paper has an aspect ratio of roughly 1:1.41, while phone photos are typically 3:4 (1:1.33) or 9:16 (1:1.78). Neither matches A4.
So placing a photo on an A4 portrait page leaves white margins at the top and bottom, or on the sides. That isn't an error — it's the unavoidable consequence of mismatched ratios. The most effective fix is matching orientation: landscape photos onto landscape pages, portrait photos onto portrait pages, which cuts the margins noticeably.
With a mix of orientations there's no perfect answer. Look at which way most of them face and follow the majority, or accept the margins and keep everything portrait, which usually reads as tidier in a document.
Filenames Decide the Page Order
In a PDF, page order is the document's structure. Upload several images at once and they're generally placed in filename order — which is exactly where things go wrong. Name them `photo1, photo2, … photo10` and string sorting puts `photo10` ahead of `photo2`.
Padding the numbers — `01, 02, … 10` — makes the problem disappear. For contracts or applications where sequence is part of the content, page through the finished PDF once from start to end before sending it.
The Originals Determine the File Size
A PDF's size is close to the sum of the images inside it. Bundle ten 3 MB photos and you get a PDF approaching 30 MB, which is why these files so often bounce off email attachment limits.
The fix isn't to compress the PDF afterwards — it's to shrink the sources first. For a document meant to be read on screen, resizing the photos to around 1,600px wide before bundling cuts the size dramatically. For print you need the original resolution, so decide which matters more before you start.
When Bundling Beats Sending Separately
- Submitting a multi-page document photographed one page at a time
- Filing receipts or evidence photos in a fixed order
- Handing several photos to a print shop in a single file
- Uploading to a system that accepts documents but not loose images
