PDF to TIFF (CCITT G4 Fax Encoding)

Documentize
1

Hi,

I’m evaluating your PDF-to-TIFF conversion product. During my tests, I noticed that the generated TIFF images use LZW compression. If I purchase a license, is there a way to change the compression method? I’m using TiffConverter() from Documentize 25.5.0 and would like a simple way to convert PDF to TIFF with CCITT G4 Fax Encoding. While I found options to create multi-page TIFFs and change the resolution, I haven’t found how to set the compression type. I’m just one click away from buying, but I need to confirm this feature.

Hi, framirez
You’re right — currently, only LZW compression is supported during conversion.
We plan to add the ability to choose the compression method for TIFF conversion in the upcoming version 25.6, scheduled for release in June 2025.
Thank you for your request.

Hi, framirez , fco.

Today a new version of the library (25.6) was released with the feature you were looking for.
This release added 2 options for PdfToTiffOptions class.
Example:

// The example demonstrates how to convert PDF document into TIFF format with additional parameters.
var options = new PdfToTiffOptions();
options.AddInput(new FileDataSource("path_to_your_pdf_file.pdf"));
options.AddOutput(new DirectoryDataSource("path_to_output_directory"));
options.Compression = TiffCompression.CCITT4; //new parameter
TiffConverter.Process(options);
