Up to 1,000 images and PDF pages
Mix photos and PDFs. Each PDF page becomes a separate image.
Photo preview
Set your size, choose how the photo fits, then drag the preview to position your crop.
Fill frame crops to your exact width and height. Fit whole photo keeps everything with white padding (transparent in PNG). Keep proportions links the dimensions. None of these options stretch your photo. Choose No limit for file size to keep exact dimensions.
Add a photo to read its dimensions.
Choose a photo to preview and crop.
Photo looks
Choose a look, then adjust its intensity.
Drag the photo in the preview to move it inside the crop. Or use the sliders. Position is saved separately for each selected photo.
2 Scan & review
Organizing? Choose photos above, then scan and review the suggested names and categories below.
Fast conversion: leave scanning and renaming off to skip photo analysis. Output names start at Photo_1.
3 Save organized copies
Happy with the categories? Choose a folder and save. Your originals stay untouched.
Use desktop Chrome or Edge for category folders. The website saves copies; it does not move or delete originals or rearrange your phone’s albums.
About organizing on the website
File Types groups by extension without an AI download. Subject suggestions do not include the iPhone app’s screenshot OCR, selfie tags or GPS city lookup. Correct names and categories in the photo list before saving. PDF pages must be converted rather than copied.
Print photos — sizes, layouts & preview
Use the photos added above. Place 1–10 photos on one sheet, side by side or in a compact grid. Choose each photo and check the preview before printing.
Move each photo within its crop. Sliders affect only the edges being trimmed.
Rotate, zoom & filter each photo
Rotation and zoom stay inside each photo’s space. Check the preview for trimmed edges or white corners.

Print layouts always preserve proportions, even when custom resizing is unlocked. Use the position sliders when cropping to fill.
Add photos, then open this panel to preview your print.
Print PDFs have the selected physical paper size and a 300-pixels-per-inch layout. Low-resolution originals may look soft. Choose matching paper and Actual size / 100% in your printer settings. Borderless printing depends on your printer. These exports use print settings, independently of the converter’s file-size limit.
How to use Image to Vector
- Add a logo, illustration or photo in a supported format.
- Choose SVG, a color count and tracing detail. Optionally remove the background first.
- Convert and preview your SVG. Open it in Illustrator to edit paths or save as an .ai document.
A real vector, not a renamed photo
The tracer creates SVG paths rather than embedding a bitmap. SVG opens in Adobe Illustrator and other vector editors. Native .ai export is not provided; open the SVG in Illustrator and use Save As to create an Illustrator document.
Pick the right source
Sharp, simple artwork traces best. Photographs become stylized shapes and gradients can band. Small text may lose legibility and remains outlines, not editable type. Tracing uses up to a 1024-pixel analysis edge to keep browser memory and path counts manageable; the SVG keeps the chosen output dimensions.
Common questions
Not sure which output to choose? Read the HEIC, JPG, PNG and PDF format guide before converting.
Does tracing improve the original photo quality?
No. It approximates pixels with colored paths. Those paths scale without pixelation, but tracing cannot recover missing detail or recreate the original design layers.
Can I trace a PDF?
Yes. PDF pages first render to images, then trace. This does not extract original PDF text or vector objects. Use the original document for faithful vector editing.
