Convert HEIC to PDF
Combine iPhone photos into a single PDF document. 100% private — photos never leave your browser, and location metadata is removed automatically.

Supports .heic and .heif — the format iPhones shoot in
Tip: Add multiple images — each becomes its own PDF page. Drag the thumbnails to reorder.
iPhone photos, one shareable document
Receipts, whiteboards, documents, ID photos — iPhones capture them all as HEIC, a format most offices and upload portals can't open. Turning them into a single PDF solves both problems at once: universal compatibility and one tidy file instead of a dozen attachments.
Drop your HEIC photos, drag them into order, pick a page size and margins, and download. Every step — decoding the HEIC files, building the PDF — happens in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, which is exactly what you want for documents and personal photos.
As with all ImagePilot HEIC tools, the pages are rebuilt from raw pixels, so hidden metadata like GPS location and capture time never makes it into the PDF.
How to convert HEIC to PDF
- 1
Add your HEIC photos
Drop the files onto the box above or tap to pick them. They are decoded one at a time on your device, and each thumbnail shows a spinner until it is ready — the download button stays disabled until every photo has finished.
- 2
Put the pages in order
Drag the thumbnails, or use the arrow buttons on each one, into the order you want. The first thumbnail becomes page one of the PDF.
- 3
Choose page size and margins
A4 or Letter gives you a printable document, with each photo scaled to fit the page and centered. "Fit" makes every page exactly the size of its photo; choose None for margins if you want no white space.
- 4
Download the PDF
Press Download PDF. The file is assembled in your browser and saved straight to your device — nothing is uploaded at any point.
Keep the PDF small enough to send
Each page is embedded at the photo's full resolution, so ten iPhone photos can easily make a PDF too large to email or to squeeze under an upload portal's limit. When the size matters, go the long way round: convert the photos with HEIC to JPG, shrink them with Compress Image to 1MB, then combine them with Image to PDF. The pages look the same on screen, and the document comes out a fraction of the size.
If something goes wrong
- A file is rejected as "not a valid HEIC file": the tool checks what is inside the file, not its name, and that file is not HEIC — often it is already a JPG or PNG. Add it with Image to PDF instead, which accepts JPG, PNG, WebP and AVIF.
- The download button stays greyed out: at least one photo is still being decoded. Large batches take a while because photos are processed one after another to keep memory under control; wait for the last thumbnail to appear.
- Pages have white borders: A4 and Letter are a different shape from a phone photo, so the photo is scaled to fit and the rest of the page stays white. Choose "Fit" to make each page match its photo, and set margins to None.
- On iPhone or iPad, very large photos come out smaller: to stay within Safari's memory limits, photos wider or taller than 4096 pixels are scaled down to 4096 on their longest side. Standard 12-megapixel iPhone photos are below that and are not changed.
Frequently asked questions
How do I turn iPhone photos into a PDF?
Drop your HEIC photos above, arrange them in the order you want (drag the thumbnails), pick a page size and margin, and press Download PDF. Each photo becomes one page of the document.
Are my photos uploaded to a server?
No. The HEIC decoder and the PDF generator both run inside your browser. The photo files are not uploaded to ImagePilot.
Is the GPS location in my photos removed?
Yes. The PDF pages are rebuilt from image pixels, so embedded GPS coordinates, capture date, and device details from the originals are not carried into the PDF. Visible landmarks or text in a photo can still reveal its location.
Can I control the page size and layout?
Yes. Choose A4, Letter, or "Fit" (each page exactly matches its photo's dimensions), set portrait or landscape orientation, and add optional margins. Photos are centered and scaled to fit the page.
What happens with Live Photos or burst shots?
HEIC containers can hold several images. ImagePilot uses the primary photo — the still frame you see in your camera roll — for the PDF page.
Is there a limit on the number of photos?
No hard limit — but everything happens in your device's memory, so very large batches of full-resolution photos can get slow on older phones. Photos are read one at a time to keep memory usage in check.
