Question

How to generate PDF file from photoshop

I hope to convert 5 jpegs to a PDF file - With each jpeg image on its own page.

But when I select automate, there is only an option to export as a PDF "presentation."

And all I have to scroll down to see the jpegs.

Is this the only option out of photoshop?

Thanks-

    Which version of Photoshop are you using?
    How is each image set up?

    If you are using CC 2019 and you have used a separate artboard for each image you can use Export > Artboards to PDF and that will create a single pdf file with each image on its own page.

    Sjanni-

    Thanks so much for getting back.  I'm using CC 2017.0.1

    Will I have to update?

    I do see export artboards to PDF.  But I don't know how to turn the files

    into "artboards." 

    Presently they are jpegs.

    If you can Export to Artboards then you should be able to do everything with your current version.

    I would create a new file, make sure you tick artboards on the New file set up.

    Add as many artboards as you need, there should be an artboard tool available. which once selected will allow you to click plus buttons to create additional artboards. Place the images you want to use on different artboards, then use the Export to Artboards option.

    When I tested they came into the pdf backwards so you will need to either look at options carefully or place them in the right order to get the results you're after. Or move them around in Acrobat afterwards.
