Which Formats Can I Create PDF From?

Smallpdf can convert Microsoft Office and image files to PDF. As a result, you can use our PDF creator
online for free to convert Microsoft Word documents, as well as Excel and PPT slides. JPG, BMP, GIF, TIFF,
and PNG images can also be dragged and dropped into the toolbox. If you want to create multiple PDF
documents, you can either do this one by one or sign up for a Pro subscription, where you can batch
convert as many documents as you’d like.

For the latter, you can also mix the file types. That means you can drag and drop a mix of Word, JPG, and
PPT files into the tool and convert them simultaneously to individual PDF files. There’s no limit on the
number of documents that can be converted to PDF format. When using the batch processing mode, you
can download all files in a collective ZIP file on the result page.

How to Create PDF Files on the Go

As an online service, you can quickly access Smallpdf through a Google search, from a bookmark, or via
our free Chrome extension. This lets you quickly access all the tools you need without searching the web.
Once selected or when you open a PDF, the extension will display all accessible tools. Aside from the
online PDF converter, you can merge PDF files, split them up, or even create your very own electronic
signature. You can check out the full suite of tools Smallpdf has to offer via our homepage.
