HEIC to PDF Converter

Convert iPhone and iPad HEIC photos into a PDF document. Conversion happens in your browser, so your photos are never uploaded.

Free, no signup No watermarks Files never leave your device
Drop HEIC photos here or click to select Your files stay on this device: nothing is uploaded.

iPhones save photos in HEIC format by default, and plenty of websites, portals, and Windows PCs cannot open them. This free tool converts HEIC (and HEIF) photos straight into a PDF document in your browser: no app to install, no upload, no signup.

Select one or more HEIC photos, put them in order, and download a single PDF that opens everywhere. Because the conversion is local, private photos of documents, receipts, and IDs never touch a server.

How to convert HEIC to PDF

  1. Add your HEIC photos

    Drag HEIC or HEIF files into the box above, or tap it on your iPhone to pick photos directly from your camera roll.

  2. Arrange the pages

    Each photo becomes one PDF page. Reorder or remove photos until the document looks right.

  3. Choose page settings

    Keep "Fit to image" for full-size photos, or pick A4 or US Letter with a margin for a printable document.

  4. Convert and download

    Click "Convert to PDF". The HEIC photos are decoded and assembled into a PDF on your device, then downloaded.

Why HEIC files are hard to share

HEIC (High Efficiency Image Container) is Apple’s default photo format since iOS 11. It stores excellent quality at half the size of JPG, but support outside the Apple ecosystem is patchy: older Windows versions need a paid codec, many upload forms reject it, and email recipients often cannot preview it. Converting HEIC photos to a single PDF solves all of that at once, since PDF opens on effectively every device made in the last two decades.

Convert iPhone photos to PDF without an app

You do not need to install a converter app or change your camera settings. Open this page in Safari on your iPhone, tap the selection box, and choose photos straight from your library; iOS hands over the original HEIC files and the conversion runs on the phone itself. The finished PDF lands in the Files app, ready to attach, AirDrop, or upload to a portal that would have rejected the HEIC originals.
