What changes when you convert GIF to PDF

  • Each GIF becomes one PDF page. Choose the page size (same as the image, A4 or US Letter), the orientation and the margin.
  • The picture is embedded as a high-quality JPEG. Transparent areas are filled with white, which is how they look on a PDF page anyway.
  • Select several images and tick "Combine all images into one PDF" to get one multi-page document.
  • GIF animations keep only their first frame in a PDF.

When to choose PDF instead of GIF

Choose PDF for sharing, printing and archiving pictures or scans as documents, one image per page. Its main limit: it is not an image format, so editing the picture inside later is awkward.

Stay with GIF if you need short looping animations, memes and very simple graphics.
