Using the Convert PDF service

You can accomplish the following tasks by using the Convert PDF service:

  • Convert PDF documents to PostScript. When converting to PostScript, you can use the conversion operation to specify the source document and whether to convert to PostScript level 2 or 3. The PDF document you convert to a PostScript file must be non-interactive.

  • Convert PDF documents to JPEG, JPEG 2000, PNG, and TIFF image formats. When converting to any of these image formats, you can use the conversion operation to specify the source document and an image options specification. The specification contains various preferences, such as image conversion format, image resolution, and color conversion.

  • Convert PDF documents to SWF. When converting to SWF, you can use the conversion operation to specify the source document and SWF specification.

  • (Deprecated) Extract files from an archive file to a directory.

    Note: The operation to extract files from an archive was deprecated in LiveCycle ES 8.2; however, you can continue using it in LiveCycle.
