This section explains how to automate PDF to TIFF conversion using Java.

We will complete this section by covering the following steps:

  1. Initialize an instance of the Document class and load the PDF document.
  2. Set the resolution of the image by creating an object of Resolution.
  3. Create an object of TiffSettings class to configure the settings.
  4. Call setCompression method to set the type of the compression.
  5. setDepth method will set the color depth.
  6. setShape method will set the type of the shape.
  7. Instantiate an instance of TiffDevice class to save pdf documents page by page into the one tiff image.
  8. Invoke process method that converts a PDF file to a TIFF image.
