How do I convert GIF to PDF?

Upload your GIF file above. It is converted to PDF automatically (change the output format or quality in the Settings tab if you need to), then click Download. There is nothing to install.

Does converting GIF to PDF lose quality?

The image is embedded in the PDF as a high-quality JPEG at its full pixel size.

Will the PDF keep the transparent background?

No. PDF can’t store transparency, so transparent areas are filled with the background colour you pick in Settings (white by default).

Will the animation be kept?

No. PDF can’t hold animation, so an animated GIF is saved as its first frame.

GIF or PDF: which should I use?

Use GIF for short animations, stickers and flat-colour graphics. Use PDF for emailing, printing and attaching images to forms and applications. Keep in mind the main drawback of PDF: the picture isn’t editable as an image until you convert it back.

GIF is the original web animation format. Each frame can use only 256 colours, so it suits simple graphics and short loops rather than photos.

Can I put several GIF images into one PDF?

This converter makes one PDF page per image. To combine several images into one PDF, use the Image to PDF tool.

Is the GIF to PDF converter free?

Yes. Convert, preview and download a single result without creating an account. Premium adds batch conversion (many files into one ZIP) and larger uploads.
