Forget manual, time-consuming processes or relying on clunky desktop software. TompisAPIs introduces a robust and intuitive solution: our Images to PDF API.
This powerful API is engineered to simplify your workflow, allowing you to effortlessly combine a collection of images – from photos and scans to screenshots and graphics – into a single, professional PDF document. Dive in to discover how this API can transform your visual content management and empower your digital initiatives.
Key Features: Unifying Your Visual Assets with Precision
Our Images to PDF API stands out with its simplicity and flexibility. At its core, the API provides a straightforward method to merge diverse image files into one comprehensive PDF. Here's a closer look at its standout features:
- Broad Image Format Support: The API is highly versatile, accepting a wide array of popular image formats including
.png
,.jpg
,.jpeg
,.tiff
,.bmp
, and.gif
. This ensures compatibility with almost any visual content you need to convert. - Effortless Merging: Simply upload two or more image files under the same key (
images
), and our API intelligently combines them into a single PDF document. The order of your uploaded images is meticulously preserved in the final PDF, ensuring logical flow and presentation. Even if you upload just one image, it will be converted into a single-page PDF, offering consistent output. - Flexible Output Options: Tailor the API's response to fit your application's needs with the
response_type
parameter:- Direct PDF Download (
pdf
- default): Ideal for immediate user downloads, providing the PDF file directly. - Base64 String (
base64
): Perfect for embedding PDFs directly into web applications or handling the file programmatically. The API returns the PDF as a base64-encoded string within a JSON object. - ZIP Archive (
zip
): For comprehensive archival or further processing, this option provides a ZIP file containing both the newly generated PDF (output.pdf
) and all the original image files, preserving your source assets.

Transformative Use Cases: Empowering Developers, SaaS, and Enterprises
The applications of a reliable Images to PDF API are incredibly diverse, offering significant value across various industries and workflows:
- Document Archiving & Sharing: Seamlessly combine scanned documents, photos of physical records, or screenshots into a unified PDF for secure storage, easy sharing, or long-term archiving. Think of digitizing receipts, contracts, or inspection reports.
- Automated Report Generation: For businesses that rely heavily on visual data, this API can automate the creation of detailed reports. Compile charts, graphs, product images, and performance snapshots into a polished, professional PDF with programmatic ease.
- Mobile & Web Upload Workflows: Enhance user experience in your applications by allowing users to upload multiple images (e.g., from their phone camera or desktop) and instantly receive a consolidated PDF. This is invaluable for applications handling insurance claims, property listings, or customer service inquiries.
- Educational & Training Materials: Create compelling e-books, handouts, or presentations by converting image-heavy content, such as diagrams, illustrations, and exercise sheets, into easily distributable PDF formats.
- E-commerce Product Documentation: Generate comprehensive product brochures or galleries by merging high-quality product images into a single PDF, providing customers with a downloadable resource for offline viewing.
Seamless Integration & Technical Specifications
Integrating our Images to PDF API into your existing system is designed to be as smooth as possible, requiring minimal development effort. The API operates via a simple POST request to the dedicated endpoint:
/api/pdf-toolkit/images2pdf/
Authentication is not required for basic use (though you might add it on RapidAPI for advanced management), ensuring quick setup. Your request will primarily involve the images
parameter for file uploads, which must be provided as a file[]
type, allowing you to send multiple image files in a single request. The optional response_type
parameter dictates your preferred output format.
Here’s a conceptual Python integration example demonstrating the API's simplicity:
import requests
url = "https://api.tompisapis.com/api/pdf-toolkit/images2pdf/"
files = [
('images', open('image1.png', 'rb')),
('images', open('image2.jpg', 'rb')),
('images', open('image3.gif', 'rb'))
]
data = {'response_type': 'pdf'} # Or 'base64', 'zip'
response = requests.post(url, files=files, data=data)
# Handle the response (e.g., save PDF, decode base64, unzip)
if response.status_code == 200:
if data['response_type'] == 'pdf':
with open("output.pdf", "wb") as f:
f.write(response.content)
# ... handle base64 or zip responses ...
else:
print(f"Error: {response.status_code} - {response.text}")
The API provides clear success responses, whether it’s a direct PDF stream, a JSON object with base64 content, or a ZIP file. Robust error handling is also built-in, providing specific messages for scenarios like missing images or invalid file formats, enabling you to build resilient applications.
