HEIC to PDF / iPhone photos

Send iPhone photos as one PDF, even to people and portals that cannot open HEIC.

Quick answer

How do I convert HEIC to PDF?

Add your HEIC photos, put them in the order you want, choose a page size and orientation, then select Convert to PDF. Each photo becomes one page, the right way up. Safari reads HEIC itself; in Chrome, Edge and Firefox a free HEIC decoder (about 0.7 MB) loads once and does the work in your browser, so your photos are not uploaded.

Privacy by default

Photos are decoded and placed into the PDF in this browser tab. They stay on your device.

HEIC to PDF FAQs

iPhone photos, browsers and quality

How do I convert HEIC to PDF?

Add your HEIC photos, put them in order, choose the page size, and select Convert to PDF. Each photo becomes a page in one PDF.

Can I combine several iPhone photos into one PDF?

Yes. Add all the photos at once or in batches, arrange them, and they are combined into a single PDF, one photo per page.

Will my photos be the right way up?

Yes. iPhone photos store their rotation separately from the image, and the converter applies it, so portrait shots do not come out sideways.

Why does Chrome download something first?

Chrome, Edge and Firefox cannot open HEIC themselves, so a HEIC decoder (libheif, about 0.7 MB) loads once and runs in your browser. Safari opens HEIC directly and skips this. Either way your photos stay on your device.

Will the quality drop?

Photos keep their full resolution and are saved as high-quality JPEG inside the PDF, so the difference is not visible in normal use. The PDF can be larger than the HEIC files, because JPEG compresses less than HEIC.

Are my photos uploaded?

No. They are decoded and placed into the PDF in your browser tab and never leave your device.

Verify it yourself

Your file is not uploaded. Here is how to check.

The core tools run inside your browser tab, so a document you open here is not sent to FreePDFKit or to anyone else. You can confirm that in about a minute.

  1. Step 1

    Open the tool and let it load

    Wait until the page has finished loading.

  2. Step 2

    Open your browser’s developer tools

    Press F12 (or Cmd+Option+I on a Mac) and switch to the Network tab.

  3. Step 3

    Run the tool on a test file

    Choose a non-sensitive file of the type the tool accepts and process it as usual.

  4. Step 4

    Look for a request that carries the file

    You will not find one. The page loads its own scripts, then the work happens in your browser.

What backs this up

  • Open-source libraries in the page. PDF handling uses libraries such as pdf-lib and Mozilla’s PDF.js, which run in your browser.
  • No PDF endpoint on the server. The only server routes are the contact form and the social-preview image generator.
  • A restrictive security policy. The site’s Content-Security-Policy limits the fetch and XHR connections page scripts can make to our own origin and Cloudflare’s anti-spam check, plus Google Analytics, which receives page views only.
