Convert AVIF to PDF

Turn AVIF images into a PDF you can share, print or attach. Everything happens in your browser, so your images never leave your device.

Why convert AVIF to PDF?

AVIF is efficient, but it's new enough that many apps, editors and upload forms can't open it yet. PDF puts images on pages that print and share reliably, and several images can go into one tidy file.

Transparent areas get a background

PDF has no transparency, so any transparent parts of your AVIF are filled with a solid colour. White is the default, and you can pick another colour before converting, for example to match the page or slide the image will sit on. If you need to keep the transparency, convert to PNG or WebP instead.

Animated AVIF files

If your AVIF is animated, only the first frame is converted and you get a still PDF. Non-animated AVIF files convert as normal.

Combine several images into one PDF

Add several AVIF files and they can go into a single PDF with one image per page. Each page is sized to its image, so nothing is cropped or stretched. A single AVIF becomes a one-page PDF.

Questions

Can I combine several AVIF files into one PDF?

Yes. Add all the AVIF files and they become one PDF with one image per page, each page sized to its image. A single AVIF gives you a one-page PDF.

What happens to transparent areas when I convert AVIF to PDF?

PDF can't store transparency, so transparent areas are filled with a background colour. It's white by default, and you can choose any colour before converting.

Can I convert an animated AVIF?

Yes, but only the first frame is kept, so you get a still PDF.

Are my AVIF images uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion runs in your browser, on your own device, so your images are never sent to a server. Once the page and converter have loaded, it keeps working even if your connection drops.
