Plans came as a bunch of scanned images, not a PDF

Hey all, first post here

My dad and I just started on a go kart build and bought a set of detailed plans online. Kind of ran into a snag though: instead of one clean PDF, what we got was a folder of like 40 separate scanned image files (mix of jpg and some weird raw scanner format), no order to them, no index.

Trying to print them out to work from in the garage but it's a mess flipping between 40 individual image files. Anyone dealt with something like this before? Did you just manually reorganize and print each one, or is there an easier way to merge them into one document?

Is there any image converter out there that doesn't need to be downloaded/installed? Would rather not put random software on my laptop just to sort out a stack of scanned images. Any tips appreciated, this is our first build so still figuring out the workflow.

Well, first of all maybe it would help if you named the cheap bast@#*$ who did it. 😡
Do they at least have page numbers, maybe that you missed ?
