How to batch convert JPG files to PDF?

I have a large number of JPG images that I need to convert into PDF files. In some cases, each image should be saved as a separate PDF, while in others, I need to combine several images into a single PDF in the correct order.

Doing this manually would take a long time, so I’m looking for a free and reliable method that can handle both tasks efficiently. It would be helpful if it could work offline, and I’m also open to using third-party software.

Could anyone recommend a suitable solution? 

Thanks in advance.

    A good free and offline option is Xn Convert, which can batch convert JPGs to PDF and handle both scenarios:

    • one JPG → one PDF
    • many JPGs → one combined PDF

    It works on Windows, mac OS, and Lin ux, and you don’t need Microsoft 365 for this.

    Xn Convert

    Get it from the official site

     

    Quick built-in Windows fallback for combining images into one PDF…

    If you only need to combine several JPGs into a single PDF and don’t want to install anything:

    1. Put all the JPGs you want in a folder and make sure they are named in the correct order.
    2. Select the JPGs in File Explorer.
    3. Right-click one of the selected images and choose Print.
    4. In the printer list, choose Microsoft Print to PDF.
    5. Choose Full page photo or another layout.
    6. Click Print, then choose a file name and save location.

    This creates one PDF containing all selected images, but it is not practical for creating many separate PDFs.
