How to Convert PNG to PDF (Keep It Lossless)

Updated July 13, 2026

A batch of screenshots for a bug report, a set of receipts, UI screens for a design review — when you need to send several PNGs as one document, converting them into a single PDF is cleaner than attaching each one separately.

Steps

  1. Open PNG to PDF and drop your images.
  2. Reorder them with the up/down buttons — each image becomes one page.
  3. Click Convert, then download your PDF.

Why PNG stays sharp in the output

PNG is a lossless format to begin with, and this tool embeds each image into the PDF without re-compressing it — so whatever sharpness your screenshot or graphic had going in, it keeps coming out. That matters for anything with fine text or hard edges, like a UI screenshot or a logo, where JPG-style compression would introduce visible blur or artifacts. Transparency in the source PNG is also preserved in the final PDF.

Mixing formats

You’re not limited to PNG alone — add a combination of PNG, JPG, and HEIC (the format iPhones save photos in) in a single conversion, and every image lands on its own page in the order you arrange them. This is useful when you’re combining, say, a few app screenshots with a photographed receipt into one file.

Notes

Everything happens on your device, so private screenshots — think account settings, internal dashboards, personal documents — never leave your browser. Because PNGs are lossless, a PDF built from several of them can get large; run it through Compress PDF afterward if you need a smaller file to email.

Frequently asked questions

Does converting PNG to PDF re-compress my images and lose quality?
No. Each PNG is embedded as-is rather than re-compressed, so screenshots, logos, and line art stay pixel-sharp in the resulting PDF.
Is transparency preserved?
Yes. Transparent areas in your PNG files stay transparent in the PDF, which matters for logos and graphics meant to sit over other content.
Can I combine PNG files with JPG or iPhone photos in the same PDF?
Yes. Add any mix of PNG, JPG, and HEIC in one go — each becomes its own page, in whatever order you set them.
