    If you have Word 2007 or higher, you can insert all pictures as one Word document and save as PDF.

    Use a virtual PDF printer(some are listed in the free software sticky). After installing, select the pictures and print them as you normally would. Though, you want to make sure that the pics are oriented in the same way(helps when rotating pics in the pdf reader) and depending on the options/input files, the pdf will be larger than the total size of the pics.

    I use doPDF to do this. Works like a charm.

    Select images you want, print, choose the PDF Printer, and save the file!
