            final BufferedImage bi = convert.getPageAsImage(page);            
            final File out = new File("/path/to/output/" + page + ".heic");
            //setters to control output 
            final HEICEncoderOptions options = new HEICEncoderOptions();
            JDeli.write(bi, options, out);
        }
    } catch (PdfException | IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}
convert.closePDFfile();

Convert PDF to HEIC thumbnails in Java with control over scaling

ConvertPagesToImages convert = new ConvertPagesToImages("/path/to/file.pdf");

    try {
        for (int page = 1; page <= convert.getPageCount(); page++) {
            final BufferedImage bi = convert.getPageAsImage(page);
            final File out = new File("/path/to/output/" + page + ".heic");
            JDeli.write(bi, OutputFormat.HEIC, out);           
        }
    } catch (PdfException | IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } 
}
convert.closePDFfile();

Convert PDF to HEIC in Java with a password-protected PDF file

ConvertPagesToImages convert = new ConvertPagesToImages("/path/file.pdf");
convert.setPassword("password");

            JDeli.write(bi, OutputFormat.HEIC, out); 
        }
    } catch (PdfException | IOException e) { 
        e.printStackTrace(); 
    } 
}
convert.closePDFfile();
