Converter / PDF for forms

HEIC to PDF for forms: turn iPhone photos into a PDF without an app

A lot of forms want one PDF: proof of address, a damaged item, identity documents photographed on an iPhone. What you actually have is a handful of .heic files that the portal will not take. Installing a desktop PDF suite for that job is more than most people need.

Make the PDF here

1. Open the converter and drop the HEIC or HEIF stills.
2. Wait until each photo shows a thumbnail. That means the still has already been encoded as JPEG in this browser.
3. Tick “Include in PDF” on the pages the form needs. Leave out duplicates and anything you would rather keep as a separate JPEG.
4. Choose “Download PDF of selected images”. The file is named heic-photos.pdf and stays on this device until you attach it yourself.

Open the converter

What the PDF looks like

Each selected image gets its own A4 page. Landscape photos use a landscape page so the picture is not a thin strip. The image is scaled to fit a margin; it is not cropped. The PDF embeds the JPEG you just made, so the quality slider on the converter applies.

This is a convenience file, not a print shop. Colour is whatever the browser’s JPEG encoder produces. Live Photo motion is omitted.

If the form still refuses the file

• Some portals cap upload size. A PDF of several full-size iPhone stills can be large. Convert fewer pages, or lower JPEG quality, then try again.
• Some portals want JPEG or PNG, not PDF. In that case skip this page and download JPEGs on Windows (or any desktop browser).
• If the rejection is about HEIC specifically, a JPEG or this PDF usually clears it. If the rejection is about the photo being unclear or cropped, conversion will not fix that.
