Conversion of HEIC to PDF

If the compression value is not defined for a HEIC file, conversion of such file may result in PDF of very large size. To resolve this, do the following:

  1. Open the following file in a text editor

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Kofax\KIC-ED\MC\Scripts\image2pdf.bat

  2. Update the value of the ENABLECOMPRESSION parameter to YES.

    set ENABLECOMPRESSION=YES

  3. Update the value of the CUSTOM_COMPRESSION_TYPE parameter to one of the following: None, BZip, Fax, Group4, JPEG, JPEG2000, Lossless, LZW, RLE or Zip.

    For example,

    set CUSTOM_COMPRESSION_TYPE=JPEG

    The CUSTOM_COMPRESSION_TYPE configuration is applied only if compression is not defined for the input HEIC file.

  4. Save and close the file.
