Conversion of HEIC to PDF

If the compression value is not defined for a HEIC file, conversion of such a file may result in a 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 CUSTOM_COMPRESSION_TYPE parameter with one of the following values: None, BZip, Fax, Group4, JPEG, JPEG2000, Lossless, LZW, RLE or Zip.

    For example,

    set CUSTOM_COMPRESSION_TYPE=JPEG

    This setting is only applied if compression is not defined for the input HEIC file

  4. Save and close the file.
