Quick answer

What you need to know first

Add screenshots to Images to PDF, arrange them in reading order, use Fit to avoid cropping and download one PDF.

  1. 1Collect screenshots in sequence.
  2. 2Remove duplicate or accidental captures.
  3. 3Convert images to PDF with Fit.
  4. 4Review the final PDF before sending.

Screenshots behave differently from photos

Screenshots often contain small interface text and sharp edges. PNG usually preserves that content better than JPG, but both can be placed into a PDF.

If screenshots are sent as loose images, the recipient may open them out of order. A PDF keeps the sequence clear.

Avoid cropping important UI details

Use Fit when the whole screenshot matters. Fill can look bigger, but it may crop navigation bars, timestamps or labels.

FAQ

Common questions

Can screenshots stay selectable in PDF?

No. Screenshot text is pixels unless OCR is applied later.

Should screenshots use PNG to PDF?

PNG is usually a good choice for screenshots because it keeps sharp edges and text clearer.
