Combine JPG Photos into One PDF
Updated
Short answer: Drop all your photos into JPG to PDF, drag them into order, pick a page size and download a single PDF.
Receipts for an expense claim, photos of a handwritten assignment, screenshots for a bug report: one PDF is easier to send, read and file than a dozen loose images.
Step by step
Step 1: Open JPG to PDF and drop all the images at once. JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF and BMP can be mixed.

Step 3: Choose a page size: A4 or US Letter for anything that might be printed or submitted, or Fit image for edge-to-edge pages the shape of each photo.
Step 4: Combine and download. Each image becomes one page.
Step 5: If a photo comes out sideways, turn that page with Organize PDF.

Why this works, and what to watch for
JPG to PDF runs in your browser. The images are read and placed into a new PDF on your own device, so they aren't uploaded anywhere, and there's no daily limit or size cap beyond your device's memory.
JPEG files are embedded exactly as they are, without being decoded and re-saved, so there's no extra quality loss. The flip side is size: the PDF is roughly the total of the photos, and photos straight off a modern phone are often 3–5 MB each. If that's too big to email, Compress PDF scales them sensibly; Medium caps the longest edge at 1,600 pixels, plenty for reading on screen. Other formats, such as WebP and BMP, are stored losslessly.
Page size changes how the result is used. With A4 or Letter, each photo is scaled to fit the page and centred, keeping its proportions, and the page turns landscape for landscape photos, so mixed orientations come out cleanly and print predictably. Fit image makes each page exactly the photo's size: nice for portfolios and screenshots, awkward for printing, because every page is a different shape.
The one thing to check is orientation. Phone cameras often save the pixels in the sensor's orientation and record which way is up in a separate tag. Photo apps honour the tag, but a PDF shows the pixels as stored, so the occasional photo can come out on its side. Organize PDF fixes individual pages in seconds, also on your device.
For many photos at once, especially on a phone, work in batches of twenty or so if the tab starts to struggle, then join the batches with Merge PDF.
