How to Convert HEIC to PDF on Windows

Convert iPhone HEIC photos to PDF on Windows. Free browser tool in Chrome or Edge — no codec or paid software required.

Convert HEIC photos from iPhone to PDF on Windows without installing codecs or paid software. FixMyPDF's HEIC to PDF tool runs in Chrome or Edge — free, local processing.

The HEIC Problem on Windows

Windows doesn't natively support HEIC (Apple's default iPhone photo format) without the HEIC Image Extensions codec from the Microsoft Store. Even with the codec installed, many apps still can't open HEIC. Converting to PDF is the most reliable cross-platform solution.

How to Convert on Windows

Open Chrome or Edge on Windows. Navigate to fixmypdf.in/tools/heic-pdf. Click "Choose File" to select your HEIC file (received via email, AirDrop, or cable transfer). Click "Convert to PDF". Download the PDF.

Getting HEIC Files From iPhone to Windows

USB cable: connect iPhone to Windows, open File Explorer, navigate to the iPhone's DCIM folder, copy HEIC files. iCloud: enable iCloud Photos on iPhone, access at icloud.com/photos on Windows, download files. AirDrop: not available on Windows — use cable or iCloud.

Windows HEIC Codec Alternative

Microsoft offers a free "HEIC Image Extensions" app in the Microsoft Store that allows Windows Photos to open HEIC files. After installing, you can use Print to PDF: open HEIC in Photos, Ctrl+P, Print to PDF. FixMyPDF requires no codec installation at all.

Sharing iPhone Photos With Windows Users

HEIC is the ideal format on iPhone, but causes friction when sharing with Windows users. Convert to PDF for professional sharing (documents, forms, signed papers), or use PDF to JPG after converting to get a JPEG for image-based sharing.

Multiple HEIC Photos to One PDF

Upload multiple HEIC files at once — each photo becomes one page of the resulting PDF. Ideal for insurance claim photos, property condition documentation, or event photo documentation from an iPhone.

Privacy

All conversion runs locally in your browser. Your iPhone photos never leave your Windows machine. Works without any iOS-specific drivers or codecs.
