Free pictures to PDF converter: Pic2Pdf v1.0

Hello,

Have you ever wanted to create your own PDF out of a set of pictures? A set of scanned notes or receipts?

Because I take notes using pen and paper, often I find myself scanning individual notes as pictures but never really consolidating the related pictures/notes in a single PDF.

For this reason, I created this simple and free/open source Pic2Pdf conversion tool.

Downloading Pic2Pdf

Let’s get started by downloading the tool from:

After downloading the zip archive, unzip it and run the “Pic2Pdf.exe” tool:

Pic2Pdf is very simple to use. Here’s a quick run down of each button and what it does:

  • ADD: Allows you to browse for files and add them to the list on the left
  • DELETE: Deletes files from the list on the left
  • UP / DOWN : Allow you to move the selected file up or down in the list.
  • SORT: Sort alphabetically the file list. Click it to toggle between ascending and descending sort
  • BROWSE: Allow you to chose where to store the PDF file
  • Open PDF: Opens the PDF file after it is created
  • CONVERT: Press this button to convert the picture list to a PDF

It is also possible to perform the following actions in the files list on the left:

  • Double-clicking on any item will open the item. It is useful if you want to inspect the picture you added to the list
  • Pressing Ctrl+Up or Ctrl+Down to move the selected picture up or down the list
  • Pressing DELETE on the keyboard to delete the selected item from the list
  • Pressing Ctrl+A to select all the items

Now let us take an example where you want to create a PDF out of 5 pictures in your documents folder. Let us follow the following easy steps:

  1. Run Pic2Pdf
  2. Press “ADD” and select the photos. Alternatively, you can just drag and drop the pictures from the desired folder into the Pic2Pdf program
  3. Use the UP/DOWN/SORT functionality if needed in order to sort the ordering.
  4. Press “BROWSE” and select where you want to save your PDF
  5. Press “CONVERT” to finish!
