# Media · Image · Combine images into a single PDF

POST https://api.simplified.com/api/v1/tools/images-to-pdf
Content-Type: application/json

Combine multiple images — mixed formats supported (PNG, JPEG, WEBP,
HEIC/HEIF) — into a single PDF, one page per image, in the given
order. Each entry in `images` is a remote URL or an existing
Simplified asset UUID (resolved server-side, scoped to the caller's
workspace). This produces a NEW combined PDF from separate source
images — for converting a single image's own container format use
`convertImageFormat` instead. Async — returns a task_id (auto-polled).


Reference: https://docs.simplified.com/api-reference/image-tools/convert/images-to-pdf

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (required) (prefixed with ` Api-Key   `) — Header authentication of the form `Api-Key  <token>`
- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — Bearer authentication of the form `Bearer <token>`, where token is your auth token.

## Request

### Body (application/json)

This endpoint expects an object.

- `images` (list of string, required) — Ordered list of image sources — each a remote URL or an existing Simplified asset UUID. Page order matches this order.
- `name` (string, optional) — Output PDF filename. Defaults to "images.pdf".
- `page_layout` (enum, optional, default: fit-to-image) — "fit-to-image": each page sized to its own source image. "a4" / "letter": fixed page size, image centered and scaled to fit within margins.
  - Allowed values: `fit-to-image`, `a4`, `letter`
- `on_error` (enum, optional, default: fail) — "fail": abort if any image can't be fetched or decoded. "skip": best-effort — assemble from whatever succeeded; skipped inputs are reported in the result.
  - Allowed values: `fail`, `skip`

## Response

### 202

Async task queued.

- `task_id` (string, optional) — Poll GET /api/v1/tasks/\{task\_id} until SUCCESS or FAILURE.
