When to Convert
Common scenarios where this conversion is useful
Converting AVIF web images for document submission
Many modern websites serve images in AVIF format. Your file is uploaded over an encrypted connection and converted on our server.
Making AVIF images compatible with legacy systems
AVIF is not supported by all software and older operating systems. Converting to PDF wraps the image in a universally compatible format that opens in any PDF reader regardless of AVIF codec availability.
Archiving high-quality AVIF photos as documents
AVIF's excellent compression makes it ideal for photo storage. Convert AVIF photos to PDF to create archival document records in a format that is stable, universally readable, and accepted by formal archiving systems.
Preparing AVIF images for print
Print shops and professional printing services require PDF for precise dimension and DPI control. Convert your AVIF image to PDF to specify exact print dimensions before sending to a print service.
Sharing AVIF images with users on unsupported platforms
Not all email clients or office applications render AVIF images correctly. Converting to PDF ensures your image is displayed consistently to any recipient, regardless of their platform or browser version.

Frequently Asked Questions
This conversion runs on our server, so your file is uploaded over an encrypted connection. Files up to 15MB are deleted as soon as the converted file is sent back; larger files run as a background job and are deleted automatically about a day later. We don't share your files.
Yes. The browser uses its built-in AVIF decoder to read the image before jsPDF creates the PDF. Chrome 85+, Firefox 93+, and Safari 16+ all support AVIF natively.
The browser renders the AVIF at its native resolution and color depth, which is then embedded in the PDF. The quality in the PDF matches what the browser displays when viewing the AVIF.
The image is embedded at the display color depth that the browser renders. Most PDF viewers display images in sRGB, so HDR-specific color information may be mapped to the sRGB range.
The PDF page is sized to match your AVIF image's dimensions and aspect ratio. The image fills the page without cropping or added white borders.
Free conversions accept files up to 25MB. A one-time $2.99 Day Pass raises the limit to 100MB and unlocks unlimited conversions for 24 hours.
Each conversion produces a single-page PDF for one AVIF image. To combine multiple images into a multi-page PDF, convert each image separately then merge the PDFs with a dedicated tool.
AVIF supports full alpha channel transparency. When the browser renders the AVIF, transparent areas are composited against a white background before embedding in the PDF.
Yes. The converter works in Chrome for Android and Safari on iOS 16 or later (where AVIF is supported). The conversion runs entirely in the mobile browser.
Your first conversion each day is free, with no signup and no watermark, for files up to 25MB. For more conversions the same day or files up to 100MB, a one-time $2.99 Day Pass unlocks unlimited conversions for 24 hours. No account or subscription is needed.
