Pixels on a PDF page
Output is a one-page raster PDF at 96 DPI, not an editable vector document.

What happens when you convert QOI to PDF?
Sample precision & colour
Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.

QOI
Quite OK Image Format
Compression: LosslessTransparency: YesMetadata: Colour-space flag
A small lossless codec for 8-bit RGB and RGBA images, designed for simple, fast implementations.

Target
Portable Document Format
Compression: Depends on variantTransparency: YesMetadata: Document information, XMP, ICC output intents
A fixed-page document format mixing text, vectors and raster images. Image conversion requires deliberate page rendering.

Good choice when
- PDF fits your delivery use: Fixed-layout documents & print.
- You need a document page for printing or delivery.
- You need a transparency-capable destination and will check its supported variant.
- You can validate the destination’s sample precision and colour interpretation.
Probably not when
- You expect OCR, vector tracing or a smaller image from a PDF wrapper.
- You assume format-level alpha support guarantees matching transparent edges.
- You require identical samples without a defined colour and precision policy.
QOI to PDF conversion details
- Pixels on a PDF page
- Output is a one-page raster PDF at 96 DPI, not an editable vector document.
- Transparency representation
- The implemented target supports alpha. Display-pixel processing can round translucent samples; archival sample equality is not promised.
- Sample precision & colour
- Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
- Metadata & colour
- Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
- Compression
- QOI: Lossless → PDF: Depends on variant QOI: QOI preserves 8-bit RGB/RGBA samples losslessly. Reducing 16-bit data or discarding profiles and metadata before encoding is outside that guarantee. PDF: PDF has no single compression quality. Different streams may use lossless or lossy filters; page rasterization can remove document structure even when the resulting pixels are encoded losslessly.
- Transparency
- Transparency is replaced with white by default. Change the background in Advanced options.
- Colour depth
- QOI: 8 bits/sample
- Multiple images
- PDF: Page tree
- Vector graphics
- PDF: Paths & text on pages
- Dimensions
- Rendered image dimensions are retained within the converter limits; this tool does not offer resizing. Orientation handling depends on the source decoder.
- Metadata
- Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
