FileKiwi

PDF Converter

Every conversion to and from PDF in one place, easy enough to use on your phone.

The FileKiwi PDF converter covers the everyday jobs people need a PDF for. Turn photos of receipts, a spreadsheet, an ebook, a DOCX resume or plain text notes into a PDF that looks the same on every device. Or go the other way and get page images, an editable Word file, plain text or an archive ready PDF/A file out of a PDF.

Most image conversions run in your browser. Word, Excel, EPUB, TIFF and TXT to PDF, and PDF to PDF/A, are processed on our server, because they need fonts, a layout engine or Ghostscript. Pick a tool below to start.

PDF converter tools: files to PDF

  • JPG to PDF: combine camera photos, receipts or scanned pages into one PDF with A4, US Letter or fitted pages.
  • PNG to PDF: turn screenshots, charts and diagrams into a clean document.
  • HEIC to PDF: put iPhone photos straight into a PDF, with no JPG step in between.
  • WebP to PDF: save images from websites as PDF pages.
  • TIFF to PDF: every page of a multipage fax or scanner TIFF becomes a PDF page, up to 200 pages per file.
  • Image to PDF: mix JPG, PNG and HEIC pictures in a single file.
  • Word to PDF: lock the layout of a DOCX file, such as a CV or letter. The old .doc format is not supported.
  • Excel to PDF: XLSX, XLS, ODS or CSV, each sheet on a new page, with columns fitted to the page width. Charts and pictures are not included.
  • EPUB to PDF: print an ebook without DRM, chapter by chapter, on A5, A4 or US Letter pages.
  • TXT to PDF: give notes, logs and code a proper page layout, with a monospace option.

The image tools let you drag pages into order and choose page size, orientation and margins before you create the file.

Convert PDF to other formats

  • PDF to JPG: save every page as a JPG at 72, 150 or 300 DPI for chats, slides and social posts.
  • PDF to PNG: lossless page images for text heavy pages, diagrams and floor plans.
  • PDF to Word: extract the text into an editable DOCX with page breaks.
  • PDF to Text: get all the words as a .txt file or copy them to your clipboard.
  • PDF to PDF/A: create a PDF/A 2b file with embedded fonts for courts, archives and electronic filing. Check strict portals with a validator such as veraPDF.

Scanned PDFs are a special case. If a PDF is a photo of paper, it contains no real text, so PDF to Word and PDF to Text would need OCR, which FileKiwi does not offer yet.

Need to edit a PDF rather than convert it? Merge, split, compress, protect and more are in PDF Tools.

Frequently asked questions

Is this PDF converter really free?

Yes. Every conversion on this page is free, with no trial period and no limit on how often you come back. You can use the tools on a computer or a phone, in any modern browser.

Are my files uploaded when I convert?

A copy of every file you add is uploaded over HTTPS and kept in a private folder on our server for 30 days, then deleted automatically. Most image conversions run in your browser. Word, Excel, EPUB, TIFF and TXT to PDF, and PDF to PDF/A, run on our server. Converted results are not stored.

Which PDF converter should I use for photos?

Use JPG to PDF for camera photos, PNG to PDF for screenshots and HEIC to PDF for iPhone pictures. WebP to PDF handles images saved from websites, and Image to PDF puts mixed formats in one document, in the order you choose.

Can I convert an ebook from Kindle or Apple Books to PDF?

Usually not. Books bought in Kindle, Apple Books, Kobo or Google Play stores are normally DRM protected, and EPUB to PDF refuses them with a clear message. EPUB files without DRM, such as free public domain books, convert fine.
