Convert Images to PDF — Privately, In Your Browser

Combine photos, screenshots, ID scans, or scanned documents into a single PDF without ever uploading them. Every byte stays on your device. This matters most when you're scanning a passport, a driver's license, or medical records you don't want a third-party server holding even briefly. Most online image-to-PDF converters quietly retain your originals for 24 hours, sometimes longer; ForgeMyFile cannot retain anything because nothing is sent. Drop multiple images, reorder them, and download a multi-page PDF. Works with JPG, PNG, WEBP, and HEIC (where browser-supported). No account, no email, no file size limit beyond your device's RAM.

No signup No file size limit Works offline Open source

Privacy, in plain language

We're going to be specific instead of saying things like "100% anonymous." That phrase is a lie on any page that loads ads — and we load ads. Here's what's actually true.

What runs entirely on your device

  • Reading your file from disk into the browser
  • The conversion itself — every one of the 13 tools
  • Saving the converted file to your downloads folder
  • The "preview" of converted text, JSON, or HTML

What does not run on your device

  • Ad scripts (when enabled by the operator) and their analytics
  • Page-view analytics, when enabled
  • The first-load fetch of Google Fonts CSS (libraries themselves are self-hosted)
  • After first load, the page works fully offline; ads do not

What we (the site operators) literally cannot see

  • Your file names
  • The contents of any file you convert
  • Which converter you used, or how often
  • Your conversion history

What ad networks may see

  • Your IP address and approximate location
  • Your user agent (browser + OS string)
  • The page you visited (URL)
  • Standard ad-serving cookies, where allowed by your browser

If you want to neutralize the ad networks too, run an ad blocker. The conversion tools themselves work either way — the privacy we offer for your files is independent of whether you block our ads.

Frequently asked questions

Are my images uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion runs entirely in JavaScript on your device. You can verify this by opening DevTools → Network and watching the convert button — no requests fire.

What's the file size limit?

There isn't a hard cap. The practical limit is your device's available memory. Phones handle ~30–50 photos comfortably; laptops handle hundreds.

Is this safe for sensitive scans (passport, ID, medical)?

The conversion itself is local, so the file content never leaves your device. Be aware the page itself may show ads, which load standard analytics — but those scripts cannot read your file.

What format will the PDF use?

A4-sized pages by default, with images scaled to fit. The original aspect ratio is preserved.
