Local Images to PDF Merger

Problem

When screenshots, scans, or phone photos are scattered in one directory, manually opening, renaming, resizing, and exporting them into a PDF is error-prone. This skill targets a more repeatable batch workflow: combine images in a folder into a single, consistently ordered, page-stable PDF.

How It Works

• Input scanning: recognizes common formats such as jpg/png/jpeg/webp/bmp/tiff.
• Sequencing: prefers numeric identifiers in filenames, so image_1_346.jpg comes before image_2_346.jpg.
• Orientation fix: reads EXIF metadata to correct rotated or upside-down captures.
• A4 fitting: scales proportionally onto A4 pages, defaulting to 150 DPI while allowing resolution changes.
• Fault tolerance: skips failed images and keeps the batch running, producing one final PDF.

Scope

Best for tens or hundreds of moderately sized images. For 300+ high-resolution files, memory usage can become significant, so lower DPI or batch splitting is safer. It does not replace tools for page encryption, signing, text editing, or advanced layout control.
