About CBZ to PDF

CBZ to PDF is for comics, manga and scanned magazines that come as .cbz archives, which need a comic reader app, while a PDF opens in any browser, on any tablet and in most e-readers. Upload the .cbz, or a plain ZIP of pictures, and every image becomes a page, sorted the natural way so page 2 comes before page 10. Manga opens right to left: Reading direction follows the manga mark in the comic's ComicInfo, or you set it, and the PDF is set to read in that order. Chapter folders inside the archive become bookmarks, and the title and writer come from ComicInfo. Comics packed as RAR archives, with the .cbr extension, go through CBR to PDF.

Double-page spreads are kept whole, or cut into two pages in reading order without re-compressing the picture. With Pictures on Original (untouched), JPG pages go in byte for byte and other formats without loss, while Smaller file for phones shrinks the file, taking a test comic from 8 MB to 0.85 MB. Page size keeps each picture's own size or fits every page onto A4, with wide spreads on landscape pages. Several volumes can go in one task and come out as One PDF, a bookmark per comic, with each volume's chapters under its bookmark. A PDF for each comic is a VIP choice. To read the finished PDF on a Kindle, Convert for Kindle prepares it for your model's screen.

FAQ

CBZ to PDF: questions and answers

Will CBZ to PDF reduce the image quality?
Not with Pictures on Original (untouched), the default. JPG pages go into the PDF unchanged and other formats are stored losslessly, which is also why a PDF of PNG or WebP pages can be a little larger than the CBZ. Smaller file for phones resizes and recompresses big pages, and only where that makes them smaller.
How do I make a manga PDF read right to left?
Leave Reading direction on Automatic when the comic's ComicInfo marks it as manga, or choose Right to left (manga). The PDF is then set to read right to left, and spreads cut in two put the right half first.
Why do other tools get CBZ to PDF page order wrong?
Many sort file names like text, which puts page10 before page2. Here numbers are sorted naturally, including the numbers in chapter folder names, hidden files are skipped, and a damaged picture is left out without stopping the rest of the book.
Is CBZ to PDF free, and how many comics can I convert at once?
Yes. Visitors get 2 tasks and free accounts 2 a day, with CBZ files up to 50 MB and 20 comics per task. Long volumes are often bigger, so VIP accepts files up to 1 GB and 50 comics per task, and can make a PDF for each comic.
Are my comics kept after the CBZ to PDF conversion?
No. The CBZ and the PDF are deleted automatically an hour after processing, and the upload is encrypted.
