Create PDF from a list of images

Install FPDF for Python:

pip install fpdf

Now you can use the same logic:

from fpdf import FPDF
pdf = FPDF()
# imagelist is the list with all image filenames
for image in imagelist:
    pdf.add_page()
    pdf.image(image,x,y,w,h)
pdf.output("yourfile.pdf", "F")

You can find more info at the tutorial page or the official documentation.


The best method to convert multiple images to PDF I have tried so far is to use PIL purely. It's quite simple yet powerful:

from PIL import Image

im1 = Image.open("/Users/apple/Desktop/bbd.jpg")
im2 = Image.open("/Users/apple/Desktop/bbd1.jpg")
im3 = Image.open("/Users/apple/Desktop/bbd2.jpg")
im_list = [im2,im3]

pdf1_filename = "/Users/apple/Desktop/bbd1.pdf"

im1.save(pdf1_filename, "PDF" ,resolution=100.0, save_all=True, append_images=im_list)

Just set save_all to True and append_images to the list of images which you want to add.

You might encounter the AttributeError: 'JpegImageFile' object has no attribute 'encoderinfo'. The solution is here Error while saving multiple JPEGs as a multi-page PDF

Note:Install the newest PIL to make sure save_all argument is available for PDF.
