How to Convert iPhone HEIC Photos to PDF
Apple's default photo format (HEIC) is often rejected by portals. Learn how to convert it to a universally accepted PDF.
The HEIC Compatibility Problem
If you take a photo of a document using a modern iPhone, it saves as a `.HEIC` file by default. This format is great for saving space on your phone, but terrible for compatibility. Most government portals, university submission systems, and HR departments will reject HEIC files outright.
Converting HEIC to PDF
You don't need to change your iPhone's camera settings or download a sketchy app to fix this. Tuko's Image to PDF tool natively supports HEIC files directly in the browser.
- Transfer the HEIC file to your Mac/PC or open Tuko directly on your iPhone.
- Upload the HEIC file to the Image to PDF converter.
- Tuko's local engine will parse the High-Efficiency Image Codec and render it into a standard PDF page.
- Click Download. Your file is now ready for upload anywhere.
