The Image to PDF API can convert JPG, PNG, and TIFF image formats to PDF. The API can convert one or more images as well as a mixture of the three supported formats at the same time. The images are individually converted as PDFs. When processed together, they can all be merged into a single PDF with multiple PDF pages.
The PDF outputs generated by the API is temporarily stored in our server. They will automatically be deleted after 1 hour for security purposes. To learn more about PDF.co Security, check out https://pdf.co/security
JPG to PDF Benefits
Multiple Format Support
Aside from the JPG image format, the Image to PDF API supports two other most common image formats – PNG and TIFF. The engine is capable of converting all three different formats in one go. Each image will be converted as a single PDF page. When several images are converted at the same time, they will all be merged into a single PDF with multiple pages.
Large File Support
The Image to PDF API can convert files larger than 10MB. It supports the asynchronous mode which allows background processing and job check. When dealing with large files, it is considered a good practice to always set the async mode to true.
On-Premise API Server
PDF.co offers an on-premise API Server option to businesses and enterprises. This enables them to run the PDF.co API modules within their own server and gives them more control with regard to the data flow. To get a trial, please contact our support team.

For example, you can convert it into a text-searchable PDF, you can split PDF, merge PDF or use your PDF file as a template for new PDF files.

JPG to PDF Samples & Demo
In this demonstration, we will convert 2 images into PDF. The first image is in PNG and the second image is in JPG format. We will use the /v1/pdf/convert/from/image endpoint to perform this task. Below is the GIF of the 2 source files and the PDF output.
