Can you convert a JPG to PDF on a Mac?

Yes. You can convert a JPG to a PDF on any web browser using Adobe Acrobat online services — the online converter is fast and easy to use. Convert a JPG to a PDF in an instant and then save it to Adobe cloud storage, which will allow you to work anywhere from any device.

Reasons to convert a JPG to PDF.

A JPG is usually static, while a PDF can be more dynamic, interactive and adaptable. When you convert to a PDF you make things happen. For example, with a PDF you can:

  • Print. This printer-friendly format gives you access to a wide array of printing options.
  • Polish. You can make size adjustments and customise with text or additional image files.
  • Compile. You might want to combine multiple JPG images into a single PDF for easy sharing or for building a portfolio.
  • Protect. This highly secure file format can be password-protected to avoid tampering.
  • Collaborate. When you pair PDFs with Adobe Acrobat Pro, you can collaborate with others using comments and feedback contained within the PDF itself.

Other Acrobat features to try.

Acrobat offers several other things to try after you’ve converted your image to a PDF:

Powerful editing functionality.

Acrobat gives you the ability to edit your PDF — for example, you can easily adjust the visible area of pages in a PDF for uniform sizes and consistent, tidy documents.

Once you’ve got your PDFs, you can edit, customise and annotate them in whatever way you need. You can add and edit text, batch convert, organise the order of your pages, split a document into multiple PDF pages and run character recognition on text to make it searchable. Whatever way you need to modify a PDF, you can do it in Acrobat Pro. You can even convert to other file types, like PNG, HTML, TIFF or Microsoft Excel, for example.

Easy conversion and export.

Converting PDFs to other formats is fast and easy. You can convert PDFs to most Microsoft file formats or back to an image of your choice. If you’re using Acrobat online tools, you can convert right back to a JPG image if you need. You’ll never have a problem working between various file formats and PDFs.

Collaborate, secure and request signatures.

Documents are easy for you to share and collaborate with others securely. You can password-protect PDFs, which are then protected by advanced encryption to prevent tampering. For documents that might need a signature, you can use digitally verified e-signatures to reduce paper waste and speed up the time it takes to get documents taken care of.

For collaboration, documents you create with Acrobat online tools are shareable. Your team members or anyone else giving feedback can comment on your documents and you can save documents in other cloud storage apps like Google Drive or OneDrive.

No matter what you need to do with your images, documents and PDFs, Adobe tools can help. Learn from tutorials about the things you can do with a powerful PDF editor or get started using Acrobat online tools now.
