If you want to make sure your images don’t lose their quality, keep reading!
Crop Parts That Aren’t Needed
The first step before converting your images is to crop out any sections that aren’t needed in the final PDF document. This will ensure your PDF document looks neat and organized instead of cluttered with unnecessary information. Plus, it will save you a bit of space.
Make All Images the Same Dimension
Having all your images in the same dimension is important when converting them into a PDF document. They won’t look consistent when viewing them together in the final document if they are all different sizes. So make sure to adjust all your images to have the same width and height before conversion.
Convert the Image to a Vector File
Before converting any JPG or PNG images to a PDF, it’s important to remember that you’re just embedding the image in the PDF. This means that when you enlarge it, you’ll still lose quality – no matter what format you’re working with. You’ll need to convert the PNG into a vector file to ensure that your converted image is not affected. It’s also important to understand that this process won’t alter the source file when creating a PDF out of an existing file.
Compress Your Images
Another tip before converting your images is to compress them first. Compressing your files reduces their size while maintaining the same quality; the newly converted PDF file won’t be too large and unwieldy. For example, if you have multiple images that you want to include in one PDF document, compressing each image beforehand will help keep the overall size of the PDF manageable. There are many tools you can use to compress your images.
