Why This Matters
What Is a PNG to PDF Converter?
Adobe Acrobat can do this, but the full version is a paid subscription, and Adobe's free Reader doesn't include this feature. My PDF does the same job for free, in your browser, with no Adobe account and no subscription.
A PNG to PDF converter combines one or more PNG images into a single PDF document, in the order you upload them, so a set of separate PNG files — screenshots, diagrams, exported graphics — can be shared, printed or filed as one cohesive document instead of a loose collection of image files.
Step by Step
How to PNG to PDF Without Adobe
1
Upload Your PNG Images
Drag in the images you want to combine, in the order you want them to appear, or click to browse and select them.
2
Confirm Your Images
Review the list of uploaded files before continuing.
3
Click Convert to PDF
Our server places each image on its own page and combines them into one PDF, typically within seconds.
4
Download Your PDF
Save your combined document, ready to share, print or file.

Tips
- Name Files to Control Order — Prefix filenames with 01-, 02-, 03- so your images upload — and convert — in exactly the sequence you want.
- Use PNG for Anything With Text — Screenshots and diagrams with text stay noticeably sharper as PNG than they would after JPG compression.
- Adobe's own free online tools require a free Adobe account to use most editing features — this tool doesn't require any account at all.
- If you only need this task occasionally, a subscription to a full Adobe plan is unlikely to be worth it compared to a free tool that does the same job.
Avoid These
Common Mistakes
- Uploading a file that is already password-protected without unlocking it first — most operations require an unencrypted starting file.
- Assuming a converted or compressed file replaces the need for the original — keep your source file until you have confirmed the result looks right.
- Not checking the 50 MB upload size limit before starting, then wondering why a very large scan fails to upload.
- Assuming Adobe Acrobat is the only way to handle PDFs professionally — many everyday PDF tasks don't actually require it.
