Convert HEIC photos to PDF
HEIC is Apple's default photo format on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Most websites and forms cannot accept HEIC files, so converting to PDF is often the easiest way to share or submit them. This tool decodes HEIC photos to PNG in your browser, then combines them into a single PDF that anyone can open.
Batch select multiple HEIC photos, reorder them, choose the page layout, and download the PDF. No app install, no file upload, no signup.
Common uses
- Combine iPhone photos of receipts, forms, or documents into one PDF for email or upload.
- Turn vacation or event photos into a shareable PDF slideshow.
- Submit iPhone-scanned documents to portals that reject HEIC files.
- Create a PDF from Mac screenshots or Photo Booth images saved as HEIC.
How it works
When you click convert, the browser loads a small HEIC decoder (about 500 KB) that runs entirely on your device. Each HEIC photo is decoded to a PNG image, and then all the PNGs are embedded into a new PDF using pdf-lib. The process happens locally — your photos are never sent to a server.
Because decoding runs in your browser, performance depends on your device and the number of photos. A batch of 10-20 typical iPhone photos usually converts in a few seconds. Very large batches may take longer; for best results, keep batches to a manageable size.
iPhone and iPad photo tips
Recent iPhones capture photos in HEIC by default to save storage space. When you transfer these photos to a computer or try to upload them online, you may see an unsupported format error. Converting to PDF solves this while keeping all your photos together in one file.
If you need individual image files instead of a PDF, consider using a HEIC to JPG converter. For combining multiple photos into a document, this HEIC to PDF tool is the fastest path.
Page layout options
Choose Use each photo size when you want each page to match the photo's original dimensions — this works well for photos of documents, receipts, or forms. Choose Fit photos on A4 pages when you need a standard document format for printing or formal submission.
Privacy and file safety
Your HEIC photos stay in your browser. The HEIC decoder and PDF creation run locally on your device. PDF2atom does not upload, store, inspect, or analyze your photos, and it adds no watermark to the output PDF.

Frequently asked questions
Are my HEIC photos uploaded to a server?
No. HEIC decoding and PDF creation happen entirely in your browser. PDF2atom never receives or stores your photos.
Why does my iPhone save photos as HEIC?
Apple uses HEIC by default because it stores high-quality images in roughly half the file size of JPEG. Most websites cannot display HEIC, which is why converting to PDF or JPG is often needed.
Can I reorder the photos before creating the PDF?
Yes. Use the up/down buttons or drag the list to arrange photos in your preferred order before conversion.
Does this work with Live Photos?
Live Photos exported as HEIC files are supported. The tool decodes the still image portion of the HEIC file.
How many HEIC photos can I convert at once?
There is no hard limit, but performance depends on your device memory. For the best experience, keep batches to around 20-30 photos. You can always create multiple PDFs and merge them afterward.
What if my HEIC file fails to decode?
Make sure the file is a valid HEIC or HEIF image from an Apple device. Files that have been renamed or corrupted may fail. Try opening the photo on your iPhone first to confirm it is intact.
Will the output PDF have a watermark?
No. PDF2atom adds no watermark or branding to the downloaded PDF.
Can I use this on Windows or Android?
Yes. The browser-based HEIC decoder works on any modern browser, regardless of operating system. This is useful for viewing or sharing iPhone photos on a Windows PC or Android device.
