How do I convert a scanned JPG to a PDF?

Upload your scanned JPG or PNG file to the FixTools Image to PDF converter and click Convert. The scanned image is embedded in a PDF at its original resolution.

What scan resolution should I use for the best PDF quality?

300 DPI is standard for document scanning. 150 DPI is acceptable for basic filing. Use 600 DPI for archiving documents that may need close reading or printing at large size.

Can I convert a multi-page scanned document to one PDF?

Yes. Upload all the scanned page images, arrange them in order, and convert. FixTools creates a single multi-page PDF with each scanned page on its own page.

Will converting a scanned image to PDF reduce quality?

No. FixTools embeds scanned images in the PDF without recompression. The resolution in the output PDF matches the original scan file.

Is a scanned PDF searchable?

A scanned PDF created from image files is not searchable by default — the text is visual. To make it searchable, OCR processing is needed separately after conversion.
