What you'll achieve
Ten HEIC photos converted to JPEG, with each conversion inspected, ten completed output files verified, and the delivered batch visible in the app.
What you need
  • Photo Converter Studio installed on a Mac.
  • HEIC images you want to convert.
  • A writable destination folder for the JPEG results.

Photo Converter Studio helps you convert a collection of HEIC photos into JPEG files ready to hand off. This walkthrough uses ten photos to show the output format, optional file size and dimension checks, original-to-output comparisons, and final delivery review.

  1. 1.Import your HEIC photo batch

    Open Photo Converter Studio and import the HEIC images for your job. This example starts with ten source photos listed together in the batch.

  2. 2.Choose JPEG and review output settings

    Under Output Format, choose JPEG. Review Quality, set to 90% in this example, before continuing.

  3. 3.Configure file size and dimension requirements

    Open Requirements, enable Limit encoded size and set Maximum bytes to 2,000,000. Enable Require minimum short edge and set Minimum short edge to 600 pixels. These are delivery checks, not automatic optimization.

  4. 4.Compare the original with the actual JPEG

    Select a source photo and choose Test Selected to generate a real production proof. In Production Proof, compare the original HEIC with the JPEG result using the image divider.

  5. 5.Inspect every proposed conversion

    For each photo, open its Production Proof, compare the image, and choose Mark Inspected. Continue until all ten rows show Inspected.

  6. 6.Review the prepared delivery

    After the ten checks are complete, accept the prepared delivery plan. In Review Delivery, verify the intended JPEG outputs and select Start Conversion to begin saving the batch.

  7. 7.Verify the completed conversion batch

    Check the finished batch. In the Delivery column, verify that all ten rows show Verified; inspect any row that instead reports a problem.

  8. 8.Find the delivered JPEG files

    Choose Delivered in the workbench filter. Confirm that all ten JPEG files appear with a Verified delivery state and check the destination folder you selected earlier.

Tips

  • Select the destination before starting delivery so you can find the files afterward.

  • Use the production proof to compare the actual converted JPEG with the original, not just a preview of the source.

  • Review the Delivered list and file count when conversion is complete.

  • Watch outJPEG does not preserve transparency; review the conversion's transparency handling if your source has an alpha channel.

  • Watch outOutput size and dimension requirements report pass or fail; they do not automatically optimize a file to satisfy them.
