Installing TIFF2PDF Plus using the installer

The TIFF2PDF Plus transforms can now be installed using an executable jar file setupTIFF2PDF_x.x.jar.

To run the installer, perform these steps:

  • Use the following command: java -jar setupTIFF2PDF_x.x.jar, where x.x is the product version; for example, java -jar setupTIFF2PDF_1.4.jar for the 1.4 version of TIFF2PDF Plus transforms.
      Note:
    • To install the TIFF2PDF Plus transforms, you need 64 bit Java 1.8 or later and Administrative rights.
    • On some Java versions, due to a bug, the above java -jar command might not start the installer. Use this additional parameter: java -Djdk.util.zip.disableZip64ExtraFieldValidation=true -jar setupTIFF2PDF_x.x.jar .
  • On non-Windows operating environments the installer uses the /tmp directory to unpack files and run certain scripts. If there are limitations on the /tmp folder of the system, such as non-exec flag or limited space, a different temporary file directory can be specified using the -Dlax.nl.env.iatempdir= parameter. Example: java -Dlax.nl.env.iatempdir=/custom_temp_dir/ -jar setupTIFF2PDF_1.400.00.jar.
  • Depending on the capabilities of your operating system, TIFF2PDF Plus transform installer opens either using a graphical user interface or a command line.
  • Follow the installation steps of the installer. During the installation process, you must specify the installation location.
