PNG is usually a screenshot

Unlike JPG, which mostly comes out of cameras, PNG is what your computer produces when you screenshot something, what design tools export, and what diagram editors save. That shapes what people want from this conversion: a numbered, ordered document out of a sequence of captures — a bug report, a walkthrough, a set of design comps, an audit trail of what a screen looked like on a given day.

The transparency question

PNG supports transparent backgrounds. PDF pages do not have a meaningful notion of transparency for this purpose, and the images are embedded as JPEG for size, so any transparent area is composited onto white. In practice this is what you want — a logo with a transparent background lands on a white page looking correct. It only surprises people when the artwork was designed to sit on a dark background, in which case export it with the intended background baked in before converting.

Sharpness and the quality setting

PNG is lossless, so a screenshot of text is pixel-perfect before conversion. Embedding it into the PDF re-encodes it, and that is where crisp text can pick up faint smudging around the letters. For screenshots containing small text, use High. The file will be larger, but the text stays legible at 100% zoom. Compact is fine for photographic content and terrible for a screenshot of a terminal.

What you get

Related things you might actually want

If the screenshots came off a phone, the dedicated iPhone and Android pages cover the picker quirks on each. If you need the text inside the screenshots as text, use Image to text. And if your files are a mix of formats, Images to PDF accepts JPG, PNG, and WEBP together.

Questions people actually ask

Do transparent PNGs keep their transparency?

No. Transparent areas are composited onto a white background when the image is embedded in the PDF page. For most logos and diagrams this looks exactly right; if your artwork was meant for a dark background, export it with that background before converting.

Are my files uploaded?

No. Everything runs locally in this browser tab. Disconnect from the internet after the page loads and the conversion still completes.

My screenshot text looks slightly fuzzy in the PDF. How do I fix it?

Use the High quality setting. Images are re-encoded on the way into the PDF, and small text is the first thing to suffer at lower settings.

Can I combine many PNGs into one document?

Yes. Add as many as you want and they become a single multi-page PDF, one image per page, in the order you added them.

Can I mix PNG and JPG files?

Not on this page. Use Images to PDF, which accepts JPG, PNG, and WEBP in the same batch.

Will the PDF be searchable?

No. The PNG goes in as a picture. Run the result through Make a PDF searchable to add a hidden OCR text layer.
