How to make a PDF from photos on your phone
Updated 2026-10-07
What you need
Just your phone's browser — Chrome on Android or Safari/Chrome on iPhone. No app to install, no account.
Steps
- Open JPG to PDF on DiscreteDocs in your phone's browser.
- Tap “Choose files” and pick your photos (or take new ones with the camera using Scan to PDF).
- Drag the photos into the right order.
- Choose A4 and a small margin for a document look. If a form needs a small file, open More options and set “Keep the PDF under”.
- Tap “Make PDF” and download. The PDF is saved to your Downloads.
Tips for clear results
Photograph documents flat, in daylight, from straight above, and fill the frame. Avoid flash — it causes glare. If the photo is sideways, fix it afterwards with Rotate PDF.
Make it searchable
A PDF made from photos is pictures of text. Run OCR PDF on it (Hindi and English supported) to be able to search and copy the text.
