What changes

AVIF pixels are decoded and encoded as PDF by our image engine for avif-to-pdf; no OCR is performed.
EXIF, color profiles, layers, animation frames, and camera metadata may be stripped unless the destination requires minimal metadata.
Transparency stays for PNG and WebP but is filled with the selected background for JPEG, BMP, PDF, and other opaque targets.
Animated inputs such as GIF are flattened to a still frame unless a server codec explicitly supports animation for that output.
SVG input is rasterized at the requested dimensions or DPI, producing pixels rather than editable vector paths.
Server-only codecs or PDF rendering are used when browsers cannot safely handle the pair.

A real AVIF → PDF run

We converted our AVIF sample (15 KB) with Image engine on 2026-10-20. It took 46 ms and produced a 33 KB PDF file, 2.1× larger than the input. The engine raised 1 warning, listed below.
