  5. If you have finished selecting the image then tap on the option done located in the upper right corner of the screen.

There are lots of paper size options to choose from, of course the options in it have different sizes depending on the type. There are A1, A2, A3, A4, letter, legal, and many other choices. So here I choose Fit Imageso that it will adjust the size of the image only.

  10. Now, if you have everything set, then tap on the option “Convert to PDF” to start the process of converting an image into a PDF file. So that when it is finished, a notification like this will be displayed later.

  11. After that, you can check the results of converting the pdf file that has been successfully done. So, friends, you can use the default application on your cellphone which is enabled to open PDF format files.
