About GIF to PDF
Need a GIF in a document or a printable handout? Each GIF becomes a PDF page showing its first frame.
Animated GIF files keep only their first frame.
PDF has no transparency, so transparent areas are filled with white.
All files you add go into one PDF, one image per page, on A4, US Letter, or image-sized pages.
Metadata such as EXIF and GPS location is not copied, because the image is redrawn on a canvas.
