When converting JPG to PDF and sharing later, you want to preserve the quality of the image. It also becomes very convenient for the end user to access the PDF file.
There are many tools for convert JPG to PDF. However, the tool that has gained a lot of trust in the segment is Adobe Acrobat. It simply converts any file from JPG to PDF without changing the quality. Looking ahead, we’ll explain step-by-step how you can use Adobe Acrobat to convert an image to a PDF.
Basic definition of JPG and PDF
JPG or JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group and is mainly used to compress highly detailed images, making them smaller for greater shareability. They are useful for sharing and storing digital images. The format is mainly used for adding images to blog posts, social media platforms, and emails.
As for PDF, it includes many things like images, official documents, diplomas, etc. The best part about PDF is that it is a format used worldwide and can be easily accessed on all devices (also being one of the most compatible). Another feature is that it also maintains the quality of the images when the size(s) are increased.
Why convert JPG to PDF?
- In terms of size, JPG files take up less space than PDF files. However, PDF files are easy to manage, and you can also use other services in Adobe Document Cloud to make sharing, uploading, and management a breeze.
- PDF will have an advantage over JPG because the former is easily edited. Any JPG converted to PDF can be split into different components for editing. However, when it comes to JPG, the situation is quite identical because you cannot edit any component.
