Prepare the photos before making the PDF
Use one clear image for each intended page. Crop unwanted background and correct sideways images in your photo editor before opening Pageivo. PDF conversion does not straighten a photographed sheet, remove shadows or recover blurred text.
Pageivo accepts JPG, PNG, HEIC and HEIF files. Its Images to PDF tool creates one PDF page for each selected image file, in the order shown in Selected files. The file picker and the format it supplies can vary by device and browser; check the names that actually appear in the workspace.
Create the PDF in the browser
This is the Pageivo browser workflow, not a claim that every iOS version exposes the same photo-picker menus. Begin with two non-sensitive photos so you can check selection, conversion and saving on your own phone.
- Open Images to PDF and choose Select files. Select a photo from the sources offered by your device.
- Add the remaining photos. For a specific order, add one at a time and check Selected files after each addition.
- If the sequence is wrong, clear the selection and add the photos again. The workspace has no drag-to-reorder control.
- Choose Images to PDF and leave the tab open while it processes the images.
- Choose Download, then use your browser's download controls to locate and open the saved PDF.
- Check the page count, order, orientation and smallest text before submitting it.
Understand how photos fit onto the page
A portrait image is centered on a portrait A4 page and a landscape image on a landscape A4 page. Pageivo scales the image proportionally inside a margin, so an image with a different aspect ratio leaves blank space. The tool does not crop the image to fill the page.
The resulting PDF contains images of the photos. It does not turn photographed text into selectable text or searchable OCR. If a form needs typed fields or the recipient requires an accessible text document, use an appropriate document or OCR workflow instead.
| What you need | What to check |
|---|---|
| One receipt per page | The PDF page count matches the selected image files. |
| An ordered document packet | The downloaded pages follow the Selected files list. |
| Readable small print | Inspect the downloaded PDF at normal size and zoom in on critical text. |
| A strict upload limit | Check the actual file size; conversion alone does not target a maximum size. |
Handle a failed HEIC conversion
Try one image by itself. A batch of large photos can need more browser memory than their compressed file sizes suggest. If one specific image still fails, confirm that it opens in a compatible photo application and export a JPEG or PNG copy there.
Changing an extension from .heic to .jpg does not convert the image. Apple's Most Compatible camera setting affects new captures; it does not rewrite existing HEIC photos. The separate HEIC guide below explains the conversion path and its limits.
Save a reviewed copy and keep the originals
Open the exact downloaded PDF before sharing it. Check that no personal background detail, unrelated photo or missing page slipped into the selection. A successful conversion only confirms that a file was created.
Keep your original photos until the recipient accepts the document. If the PDF is too large, review whether fewer photos or smaller source images are acceptable. Any later compression needs another readability check.
