Whether you are a professional photographer or a selfie lover: an image converter is a must-have in your arsenal.
Converter is an easy-to-use desktop image converter designed for Linux. It is written in GTK4/libadwaita (so it looks modern) and runs on ImageMagick (which has phenomenal features). Using Converter, you can quickly convert images from a variety of formats. Including converting images to PDF.
It works very simply: you simply open the application, drag and drop the image into the window, select the image format to convert, then click convert, with the file saved to the folder or drive of your choice.
Do you want to adjust the image quality before conversion and change the size of the image? Click the Advanced Settings button after opening the image to access these settings. Then go back to the page and click the Convert button.
The converter will allow you to convert these file formats:
- avif
- bmp
- gif
- heic and heif
- jpeg/jpg
- jxl
- png
- tif/tiff
- webp
Into one of these formats:
- avif
- bmp
- gif
- heic and heif
- jpeg/jpg
- jxl
- pdf.
- png
- tif/tiff
- webp
How to install Converter
The best way to install Converter on Ubuntu is to use Flathub, the actual Flatpak app store. See the official Flatpak Setup Guide if you need help enabling Flatpak on your system (spoiler: it’s very easy).
You can find the Converter on Flatpak. If you have a Flathub repo set up, you can also install this app by searching for it by name in your preferred distribution tool, such as GNOME Software, Discover, Software Manager, Pop! Shop, etc.
If you already have this application installed as a flatpak package, use the instructions to update it.
The application is also available to install from the AUR if you use a distribution that can access it.
