Convert Jpg To Pdf Free
Converting JPEGs to PDFs is one of those sort-of-everyday tasks that you really don't think about until it's time to do it, and then you look for a tool to do the job; preferably freeware and easy to use, too. But suppose this is a frequent task, something you do often and in large batches? Same answer: easy is good, and free is better. HiHiSoft's JPG to PDF is the sort of tool that can cover all bases. This standalone freeware converts single images or batches of files and folders to PDFs without requiring Acrobat or other PDF software. You can drag and drop files into it for fast conversion or add files and folders the conventional way. You can also convert multiple JPEGs to single-page PDFs for photo albums and e-books. It doesn't just handle JPEGs, either; with a built-in Image Analyzer that automatically recognizes image types, it can also convert GIF, TIFF, PNG, and PSD files to PDFs.
JPG to PDF's compact interface is dominated by its drop box and large Convert button as well as a series of large icons labeled Add, Remove, and Add Folder; these are basically self-explanatory, which is good because the Web-based Help file's link failed. We were able to access the program's site and available documentation via the About file, though. A Settings dialog offered two options, Output Path and Conversion Mode; the latter is a choice between converting each JPEG to a single PDF or all the selected JPEGs to a single PDF page.

JPG to PDF could hardly be easier to use. We simply dragged image files into its drop box. Each file appeared with its directory in a list view. Arrows made it easy to move items up and down in the list. When we were ready, we pressed Convert. Our new PDF appeared in our selected output folder. When we clicked the file, it opened normally in our default PDF viewer. The single page of images is a great feature, but it requires a little practice to get the size right. JPG to PDF seems to be just the tool for the job, whether it's quick work or a frequent need.
What do you need to know about free software?
You can convert your JPEG image to a PDF file by using either Windows 10’s built-in PDF function or several other online options that are all free to use. The online options work in a web browser on any operating system.
Use Windows 10’s Print to PDF Feature
Windows 10 includes a Print to PDF feature that can be used to save any type of document or image as a PDF file. You can use this to print your JPEG image as a PDF by following these steps.
- Right-click your JPEG image and select “Open With” and then “Photos” to open the image in Microsoft’s Photos app. Wait for the program to load.
- Click the “..” button in the top-right corner of the Photo app and then click “Print.”
- Click the downward facing arrow under Printer and click “Microsoft Print to PDF.”
- Select “Landscape” for the orientation, “Full Page” for the photo size and then click “Print.”
- Type in a name for the PDF file and then select what folder you would like it to be saved in. Click the “Save” button to complete the conversion of your JPEG file to a PDF file in Windows 10.
Use Save as PDF in Google Chrome
You can still save JPEGs as PDFs even if you do not have the Windows 10 operating system on your computer by using the free Google Chrome browser. Follow these steps to save your JPEG as a PDF in Chrome.
- Right-click your JPEG image and then select “Open With” and then “Google Chrome” to open the image in Google Chrome.
- Click the three vertical dots in the right hand corner to open the Chrome menu and then click “Print,' or press 'Ctrl' and 'P' at the same time.
- Click the “Change” button next to Destination and then click “Save as PDF” under Local Destination.
- Click the “Print” button and then type in a name for your PDF file. Select the folder that you would like to save it in. Click “Save” to complete the JPEG to PDF conversion.
Use “Save as PDF” in Mozilla Firefox
You can just as easily convert a JPEG to PDF if you use Mozilla Firefox rather than Chrome as your browser.
- Right-click your JPEG and click “Open With” and then click “Mozilla Firefox” to open the JPEG in Mozilla Firefox.
- Click the three horizontal lines in the right hand corner to open the Firefox menu and then click “Print.”
- Click the “PDF” option in Print options and then click “Save as PDF.”
- Type in a name for your PDF file and then click “Save” to convert your JPEG to a PDF file.
Use a JPEG to PDF Website
You can instead use a JPEG to PDF conversion website to convert your JPEG to a PDF file if you do not want to use Chrome or Firefox. Websites like jpg2pdf.com, smallpdf.com, pdfonline.com and ilovepdf.com all allow you to upload your JPEG file to their website and receive a PDF file of the image.
