How to Convert iPhone Photo to PDF
Adobe allows users to create PDF files from photos, which is the best thing you can do before sharing them from an iPhone. Sharing photos, especially from iOS to Android, is no easy task not only because of compatibility issues but also due to the risk of losing image quality.

FAQs
Does the PDF file format change the image quality?
If you save your file as a PDF, otherwise select the “Save as a PDF” prompt, that should not happen.
Why are there times when the images become blurry in PDF?
The image you have converted might be in a low resolution which is why the PDF looks blurry or pixelated; hence, use only those files with resolutions of no less than 200 dots per inch (DPI) for printing and 72 dpi for a web display.
What is the default file type of iOS photos?
JPEG is the generally used file type for photos and iOS is no exception but the latest iPhone models, from iPhone 11 up, have HEIC or HEIF (high-efficiency image file) format.
Why convert images into PDFs?
Converting images to PDF makes them a lot easier to share in reduced file size and better resolution, for that matter.
Is it free to convert iOS photos to PDF?
Yes, converting iOS photos to PDF file format will not cost anything.
