72 points is an inch. 56 is about 2 cm, which is a normal book margin.

  • No upload The conversion runs in this tab. Your file never travels — not to us, and not to the advertising.
  • No sign-up, no email, no daily cap There is no account system to sign up to.
  • No size limit we invented Only your device's memory — about ~2 GB on a desktop browser, ~400 MB on a phone.
  • Turn your Wi-Fi off and convert anyway The conversion needs nothing but this page. Ads will not load without a connection; your file will still convert. That is the whole claim, and it takes five seconds to check.

Wraps a JPEG in a PDF. The image data is embedded exactly as it is — PDF stores JPEG natively, so there is no decode and no re-encode, and the picture in the PDF is bit-for-bit the picture you started with.

No quality is lost, and that is not true of every converter

PDF can hold JPEG data directly, using the same DCT compression. So the right implementation copies the bytes in and writes a page that references them.

The wrong implementation — and it is common — decodes the JPEG to pixels and re-encodes it, adding a second generation of lossy compression for no reason at all. If a converter offers you a "quality" slider for JPG to PDF, that is what it is doing.

Nothing here is re-encoded. The file size of the PDF is the size of your JPEG plus about a kilobyte of structure.

Two ways to lay out the page

Standard page, scaled to fit puts the image on A4 or Letter with a margin, scaled down to fit and centred. The whole image is on the page — nothing is cropped — and the orientation matches the image by default. This is what you want if the PDF will be printed or submitted to a form.

Page exactly the size of the image makes the page dimensions match the pixels, with no margin. This is what you want for a scan, a screenshot or a photo book, where a paper-sized page with white borders would be wrong.

Multiple images

Dropping several JPEGs produces one PDF per image, each keeping its filename. To get one document out of them instead, run the results through Merge PDF, which joins them in whatever order you arrange — no file count, no daily cap.

Why people need this

Almost always because something will only accept a PDF: a visa or passport application, a job portal, an expense system, a court filing, a bank's document upload. Those are exactly the documents you should be least willing to upload to a stranger's server to convert — a passport photo, a payslip, a signed contract.

Nothing here is uploaded, which is the whole argument for this page over the incumbents.

Questions

Does converting lose any quality?
None. PDF stores JPEG natively, so the image data is copied in without being decoded or re-encoded.
Can I put several photos into one PDF?
Each image becomes its own PDF, then Merge PDF joins them into one in the order you choose. Both steps happen in this tab.
Is there a watermark or a daily limit?
Neither. There is nothing to meter, because the conversion costs us nothing.
My image is sideways in the PDF.
The JPEG carries an EXIF orientation flag that PDF has no equivalent for. Run it through the JPG to PNG tool first, which bakes the rotation into the pixels, then convert that.
Is my file uploaded?
No. The PDF is built in this tab and handed to you as a download. That matters here more than most places: the documents people convert to PDF are contracts, CVs, medical letters and manuscripts.
Can I convert several files at once?
Yes. Drop as many as you like, or a whole folder. Each becomes its own PDF keeping its original name.
