Updated . Tested step by step on this tool.

PNG to PDF turns your PNG images, such as screenshots, diagrams or graphics, into a PDF document, one image per page. It is a quick way to send a single screenshot as a PDF, or to combine several PNGs into one file.

What you need

  • One or more PNG files, up to 100 MB each.
  • The page dimensions you want: A4, US Letter or Match each image. You can arrange the images after uploading.

What happens to transparent areas

The finished PDF page is white. A transparent or partly transparent area in your PNG will look the same as it does when you view the PNG file on a plain white background: it is not cut out or highlighted, it simply shows white. This matters most for logos or graphics designed to sit on a colored background: check the result and, if needed, place the PNG on its intended background color before converting.

One combined document named images.pdf

Each uploaded image becomes one page, in the order shown on screen. The download is named images.pdf. Convert one image at a time if you need separate PDF files.

PNG to PDF or Images to PDF

Both tools share page size, ordering and result-preview controls. PNG to PDF accepts only PNG images. Use Images to PDF when you want to combine different image formats.

Tips

  • Review the page order. Use the arrows to arrange images before converting.
  • Flatten transparent PNGs first if the transparent area needs to match a background other than white.
  • Compress large batches. Screenshots and graphics can add up in file size; Compress PDF shrinks the result afterward.

Frequently asked questions

Does PNG to PDF keep transparent backgrounds?

The PDF page itself is white, so a transparent area in your PNG appears white once the page is opened, the same as viewing the PNG on a white background. If your design depends on showing through to a colored background, flatten the PNG onto that color before converting.

Can I combine several PNG screenshots into one PDF?

Yes. Add several PNG images, arrange them with the arrows, and convert them into a single PDF with one page per image.

What is the finished file named?

The download is named images.pdf, whether it contains one image or several. Each image becomes one page of the combined document.

Can I reorder the images or change the page size?

Yes. Use the up and down arrows beside each image. Choose A4, US Letter or Match each image for the page dimensions before converting.

Will the image lose quality when it becomes a PDF?

No. The PNG is placed on the page as is. If the resulting file is larger than you want to send, use Compress PDF afterward.
