Is this PNG to PDF converter really lossless?+
Yes. Filoraio embeds the original PNG bytes into the PDF via the embed-image step — no recompression, no resampling, no conversion to JPG. Zoom into the resulting PDF and the pixels are identical to the source PNG.
What happens to transparent PNG backgrounds?+
Transparency is flattened to flat white in the PDF. PDF as a format doesn't have a true "transparent page" concept — the white background is how every PDF viewer renders pages by default. If you need true transparency preserved through the export, keep the source as PNG instead of converting.
Are my screenshots uploaded to a server?+
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using a small WebAssembly library. Your PNGs are read, embedded, and saved as a PDF without ever leaving the tab — important when you're handling unreleased designs, internal mockups, or anything else confidential.
How do I convert Figma exports to PDF?+
Export the frames you want as PNG (Figma → Export → PNG, 2× or 3× scale for retina output), drop the resulting files onto the picker here in screen order, and pick Match image for 1:1 canvas dimensions. The result is a single PDF that mirrors your Figma flow exactly.
Will the PDF look as sharp as my original PNGs?+
Yes — the PDF is only as sharp as the source PNG you provided, with no quality loss in between. If you captured at 1× resolution, the PDF will pixelate when zoomed; if you captured at 2× or 3× (retina), it stays crisp at any zoom level.
How do I make screenshots look crisp in the PDF?+
Capture at the highest resolution available. On macOS, the default Cmd-Shift-4 captures at retina resolution automatically. On Windows, Snipping Tool captures at display resolution — for sharper results, use a tool like ShareX that can capture at 2×. In design tools, set the export scale to 2× or 3×.
Why is my PNG-to-PDF file so much larger than a JPG version would be?+
Because PNG is lossless. A 20-screenshot PDF made from PNGs is often 5–10× larger than the same content from JPGs, but the PNG version stays sharp at any zoom level while the JPG version shows soft edges around text and UI elements. If size matters, run the output through our Compress PDF tool.
Can I mix PNGs and JPGs in the same batch?+
Yes — the picker on this page accepts both formats. The PDF will preserve each input's quality (PNGs stay lossless, JPGs stay as JPGs). If you're mostly working with JPG photos rather than PNG screenshots, our dedicated JPG to PDF tool has tips and FAQs tuned for that workflow.
Can I choose the PDF page size?+
Yes. The four options are Match image (PDF page = PNG dimensions exactly — the right default for screenshots and design exports), A4 (international standard), US Letter, and Legal. For non-Match-image sizes, the screenshot is scaled to fit within the page margins.
What does "Match image" page size do for screenshots?+
It makes each PDF page exactly the same dimensions as the source PNG — no whitespace, no margins, no scaling. A 1920×1080 screenshot becomes a 1920×1080-point PDF page. This is the right default for any case where the screenshot's framing matters and you don't want letterboxing.
Can I keep landscape and portrait screenshots in the same PDF?+
Yes — use Auto orientation (or Match image, which is even better). Auto picks portrait or landscape per image based on aspect ratio, so a batch of mixed screenshots ends up with each one on a correctly-shaped page rather than letterboxed onto a forced orientation.
How many PNG screenshots can I convert at once?+
Up to 100 PNG files per batch in the picker. There's no hard cap on the output PDF size — the practical limit is your device's available memory. For batches over 100, split into two passes and combine the resulting PDFs with our Merge tool.
Why is there sometimes a black or coloured fringe around transparent edges?+
That's a known PNG-on-white compositing quirk — happens when the source PNG has anti-aliased edges colored for a non-white background. Re-export the PNG against a white background in your design tool, and the fringe goes away in the PDF.
Does this work on Linux / Chromebook?+
Yes. The tool runs in any modern browser — Chrome, Firefox, and Edge on Linux are all tested; Chromebooks work the same way. The PDF generates locally and downloads via the browser's standard save dialog, no extra software required.
