How can i convert a jpg file to pdf file?

Why not try loading picture in image component?

I tried this, but it isn't correct: the component "FILE" saves a file in pdf format, but it is not readable.

I can offer online conversion using imagemagick with php or google apps script, would that work for you?

It would mean sending the image to a server then returning the pdf.

I have a screen with a "Image" component and other text: if i use the extension to Create PDF files, the image in the file is very small. I need to convert only image in a pdf file without inserting text.
The user don't view the file: i need the file pdf to send by email, in remote.

It is not very well: the app is used off line too.

and you will send the email how ?

It is possible with google apps script to send the image to google servers, convert it to a pdf and attach it to an email sent by your google account.

Really not sure why it has to be a pdf ?

Sorry, i send the file by FTP, not email.
The remote server needs to pdf files for a batch procedure that I do not manage.

Hi,
i'm tring the extension but i have any problems. I'm working in Adroid 11 and your example p284C_extension_crear_pdf.aia returns an error too.

this is a correct path for the companion app...
EDIT: directories are case sensitive as @vknow360 said... so only almost correct... :laughing:
probably the subdirectories /Test_PDF/files do not exist?

what about just trying
/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/edu.mit.appinventor.aicompanion3/files/prova.pdf

or alternatively first create the subdirectories...
