About This Feature

Overview

Create New PDF in WPS for iOS is a built-in PDF creation and conversion feature in WPS Office. It helps you create a blank PDF quickly or turn documents, images, and scanned content into PDF files for continued work on mobile.

Core capabilities include:

  • Create a blank or note PDF: set page size, orientation, color, and page count before creating a new file.
  • Convert documents to PDF: choose a file from cloud documents or local folders and export it as PDF.
  • Convert images to PDF: import images from Photos, the camera, or document folders and save them as a PDF.
  • Convert scanned content to PDF: use the camera or photo library, then crop, filter, and adjust content before generating a PDF.

This feature is useful for mobile note-taking, file archiving, image-based handouts, and turning paper materials into digital files.
