Convert PNG to PDF

PNG to PDF converter that runs entirely in your browser. 100% free, no signup, no upload — your files never leave your device. One-click batch conversion.

Packing a PNG into a PDF embeds the image losslessly in a fixed-layout page — quality stays identical, but the file becomes printable, signable, and easy to email as a document. Use it for receipts, scans, and forms that must look the same on every device; expect the PDF to be at least as large as the PNG.

About formats

PNG

PNG (Portable Network Graphics) is a lossless raster image format that supports alpha-channel transparency. PNG is the standard choice for web graphics, logos, and UI elements where sharp edges and transparency matter, and it produces no loss in quality across saves.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is converting PNG to PDF free?
Yes. This PNG → PDF converter runs entirely in your browser and is completely free — no account, no credits, no watermark.
Which devices and platforms can I use to convert PNG to PDF?
Any modern device with a current web browser: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iPhone and iPad. There is nothing to install — the conversion happens locally.
Are my PNG files uploaded to a server?
No. Files never leave your device. The entire PNG → PDF conversion runs locally in your browser, so your data stays private.
Can I convert multiple PNG files at once?
Yes — batch conversion is supported. Add as many PNG files as you like and convert them to PDF in one pass, then download the results together.
What is the maximum file size?
There is no fixed server-side limit because the conversion happens in your browser. Practical limits depend on the available memory and CPU of your device.
Will converting PNG to PDF lose quality?
No. PDF is a lossless format (or used in a lossless mode here), so the original data from your PNG file is preserved bit-for-bit in the converted result.
Will transparency be preserved when converting PNG to PDF?
Yes. Both PNG and PDF support alpha-channel transparency, so transparent areas of your file are kept unchanged in the PDF output.
How will the file size change after converting PNG to PDF?
Both formats use comparable compression, so the PDF output will be similar in size to your PNG file — typically within 10–20% of each other.
