Convert Photos to a PDF Under 1 MB
PDF100% freeFiles never leave your device
The short answer
Phone photos are large, so a PDF made from three or four of them can pass 10 MB. Choose the Smaller file option below, which shrinks each picture before it goes in the PDF. For a tight limit, run the result through the PDF Compressor with a target in KB.
Your files stay on your device. This tool runs entirely in your browser and nothing is uploaded to a server.

Frequently asked questions
Will the text on my document stay readable?
Normally yes. Text needs far fewer pixels than a phone camera records, so a reduced picture is still sharp enough to read. Zoom in on the PDF to check small print.
Why is my PDF still big with the smaller option?
A PDF with many pages simply holds more pictures. Make the photos from a steadier, closer shot, or compress the PDF to a target size afterwards.
