Add Image-to-PDF Export Feature

[clk-66]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm often frustrated when I have image files (like PNG or JPG) that I want to convert to a PDF quickly and locally. Currently, Mazanoke handles image optimization and conversion between image formats, but it does not provide a way to convert images to PDF. I would like to do this without using a separate tool.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like Mazanoke to include a feature that allows users to convert one or more images into a PDF file directly in the browser. For example, after optimizing an image, a user could choose “Export as PDF” to download a PDF containing the selected images.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I have considered using other online tools or desktop software to convert images to PDF, but I prefer a privacy-first, offline solution like Mazanoke.

Additional context
This feature would complement Mazanoke’s current image conversion and optimization tools. Browser-based libraries like jsPDF or pdf-lib could be used to generate PDFs entirely client-side. It would be especially useful for creating simple PDF documents or albums from optimized images.

Would you mind describing the use cases when one would want to convert image to PDF?

[clk-66]

Sure. The main uses I've seen are for turning scattered images into something solid and shareable, entirely offline. It would be helpful for things like:

• Turning desktop screenshots, phone photos of receipts or forms into a single PDF to submit or file.
• Combining related images, like project screenshots or sketches, into one document for easier sharing.
• Having a simple, private way to finalize images after editing them, without uploading anything.

It’s mainly about keeping things local and straightforward for anyone who needs to make a quick, presentable document from pictures.

Thanks for sharing the use cases!

It sounds like it could fit the current workflow, as long as the PDF option is at the end as an export (what you've proposed), and not part of the "Convert to" in the "Settings" section.

I've also had plans to include bulk actions for the "Images" section, such as "zip only the selected images" by marking the relevant images. Including "export images to pdf" in that workflow would probably fit in well.

I'm currently behind on my backlog, so it will likely take some time until this can be prioritized.
