Why Convert PNG to PDF?

A PNG renders a little differently in every viewer, but a PDF preserves the exact appearance of the image across devices and operating systems without asking anyone to install anything. Margins stay put.

Converting screenshots, diagrams, or receipts to PDF makes them easier to share, archive, and print.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert PNG to PDF on a Mac?
Drop the file into the converter above, pick PDF, then hit Convert. Your Mac does the whole job inside this tab, so the file is never uploaded and the page keeps working with the Wi-Fi off. The desktop app adds folder-at-a-time batches and drops the browser size caps.
Will my PNG be the full size of the PDF page?
Yes. The converted PDF page is sized to match your image dimensions at 72 DPI by default. The image fills the entire page without margins.
Can I combine multiple PNGs into one PDF?
The browser tool converts one image per PDF. On desktop, convert the batch and merge the resulting PDFs into one file.
Does the PDF preserve PNG transparency?
Transparent areas in PNG are filled with a white background in the PDF since the PDF format requires a solid page background.
What resolution will the PDF be?
The PDF embeds your image at its native pixel dimensions. Print quality depends on the source image resolution: 300 DPI source produces print-ready output.
Is my file private?
Yes. The conversion runs in your browser tab and nothing is uploaded, so your files never leave your device. The only limit is size: 25 MB for this format. Bigger files route to the desktop app.

Creating a multi-page PDF from many PNGs?
