Although the program stopped short of converting all 865 images several times, terminating at 500-550th image, I let it create two PDFs from the start and from the end, and then combined the two PDFs in Foxit. Good advice, thanks.
Glad it worked for you. Irfanview is good, but 865 images is rather a lot IV's been around since Windows 98 at least, maybe even 95, still being enhanced, new plugins still being developed. It's not Photshop or the GIMP - but it is free, and you don't need a PhD in graphics to drive it.

FWIW I would have concatenated the two PDF's using PDFsam, (PDF split and merge), another useful freebie.
