Image to PDF converter (offline tool)

[admin]

- Nothing fancy. Just should take one or more images and turn them into a PDF, one image per page.
- Win8.1 compatible would be nice.

Any recommendations?

FastStone Image Viewer.
Free for personal use. I'm still using version 4.2, has been working without a hitch for (let's check...) 15 years. Portable, 2mb in size.

Select one or more images (in my case: mostly A4 scans), hit alt-M (or menu "Create", "Multi Page File Builder").
Excellent tool in my book.

Alright, thanks for the tip! I even own a license for it, but didn't know it can do that (well, because of XY I never use it).

What do you mean "because of XY I never use it"? No time left to try it out?

[EDIT: Aah, now I see: you mean "I never use FastStone for image viewing"...]

Hope it can be useful for you. Just wanted to add that to my surprise the old 4.2 version is still available (virustotal even says it's OK):

Just in case somebody else stumbles upon this thread...

"because of XY I never use it" because XY is my image viewer.

The CLI way: https://gitlab.mister-muffin.de/josch/i ... mg2pdf.exe

Edit your $dstPath^^

Code: Select all

    $dstPath = "D:\Users\%USERNAME%\Downloads";
    $dstFile = formatdate(, "yyyy-mm-dd_hh-nn-ss") . ".pdf";
    $tool    = "D:\Tools\@CLI Tools\img2pdf\img2pdf.exe";
    end (exists($dstPath)  != 2), quote($dstPath)  . <crlf 2> . "does not exist, aborted!";
    end (exists($tool)     != 1), quote($tool)     . <crlf 2> . "does not exist, aborted!";

    $result = runret(lax("$tool" <selitems> -o "$dstPath\$dstFile"), "%TEMP%", , 2);
    if ($result == 0) { status "PDF created successfully!"; }
    else { status "PDF creation failed!", "8B4513", "stop"; }

I convert anything to PDF by printing it to pdfFactory. (Been using FinePrint and the factory for ages, one of my essential softwares)
