Format Conversion
Join the folder into one PDF, still with no account
A folder becomes one PDF with no account and no usage meter. Page order matters. Joining does not compress.
The portal wants one PDF, and you have a folder of pages. Image8K stays free: no account, no usage meter, no checkout when the folder is half done. The list of tools in the sidebar is not a quota.
Read order, one file
Join the pages in the order a person will read them. One PDF. Page order matters. Each page stays at or under 20MB. Joining does not compress, and it does not turn a sideways page upright. One file for a form that bounced a zip is the PDF guide. There is nothing to unlock before the last page.
What this pass does not do
If the phone files are still HEIC, convert that folder first. The PDF step does not read HEIC. If a page is sideways, turn the pages that share that same orientation first. One click does not fix left and right together. That turn is still free: the folder that shares one orientation. If the form then rejects the weight, compress the JPG pages and join again. Do not expect the PDF to make them lighter.
Nothing is uploaded
The folder is read here. Originals on the device are not overwritten, and they are not stored on an Image8K server.
Join, and stay signed out
Download the one PDF. Do not create an account to attach the last page. There is no meter waiting for it.
FAQ
Is there a meter after the first pages?
No. Free stays free. The sidebar of tools is not a quota. There is nothing to unlock before the last page.
Does joining shrink or rotate the pages?
No. A PDF is a container. Page order is the order you set. A sideways page is turned first, and only with pages that share that turn.
Will this open a HEIC page?
No. Convert that folder to JPG first, still with no account. Then join the JPG pages.
