I suppose it depends on what you're doing.  I don't know of a
command-line tool that will take foo.jpg and turn it into foo.pdf.

However, you can probably put a jpeg image in a LaTex document.

You can put a picture element on a page in xfig and pull in the jpeg
file to fill it.  

So if you only want the jpeg file, xfig is probably the easiest.

Presumably, any graphics editor can give you a postscript file
output which can be chaged to pdf with one of those utilities.
