How to put both sides of an ID card in one PDF
- Take one photo of the front and another of the back of your ID card.
- Add both. The first goes at the top and the second at the bottom; swap them with the arrows if needed.
- Leave Two images on one page switched on.
- Click Create the ID card PDF and download it.
It works with any card that has two sides: a national ID card, a residence permit, a driving licence or a health card. In Spain, for example, it's what you need for the DNI or the NIE/TIE card.
Tips for a photo that's easy to read
- Place the card on a flat, dark surface so the edges stand out.
- Use natural light and avoid the flash: the plastic causes glare that hides the details.
- Take the photo straight from above and get close so the card fills most of the picture.
- Before sending it, open the PDF and check you can read the number, the expiry date and the signature.
Each organisation decides how it wants a copy of your ID. If they ask for each side in a separate file, use JPG to PDF with each photo on its own.
