Convert PNG to PDF

Most PNG-to-PDF tools paste the pixels onto a page. This one traces them, so the PDF is outlines that stay sharp at any zoom and separate at the press.

Wissenswert

There are two completely different things called "PNG to PDF". The common one puts your bitmap on a PDF page — useful for archiving a screenshot, useless for print, and it blurs the moment anyone zooms. This one traces the image and writes the resulting paths into the PDF, so the file has no raster in it at all.

PDF is a good handoff format because everyone can open it and it carries a real page size. If the recipient needs to edit rather than print, send the SVG as well; a PDF is editable in Illustrator and Inkscape but it was not designed to be an interchange format.

Vector PDF and vector SVG hold the same geometry here — the exporters are two writers over one document, so the paths, the node count and the palette are identical.

So funktioniert's

3 Schritte

  1. Drop the PNG

    Drop the artwork you want as a vector PDF.

  2. Trace and check the zoom

    Zoom the preview to 800%. If the edges are still crisp, the geometry is right; if they are stepped, you are looking at a bitmap.

  3. Export the PDF

    The page carries a real size, so set the physical dimensions before you send it to print.

Fragen

3 Fragen
01How is this different from the usual PNG-to-PDF tool?
The usual tool embeds the bitmap on a page, so the PDF is the PNG with a wrapper and it blurs when zoomed. Here the image is traced first and the PDF contains paths, which is why it stays sharp and can be edited.
02Can I still get the original pixels in a PDF?
Not from here — that is a different job and your operating system print dialogue already does it. This page is for when you need the artwork as vector.
03Does the PDF open in Illustrator?
Yes. It is ordinary vector PDF, so Illustrator, Inkscape, Affinity Designer and Acrobat all open it, and the paths are selectable.
