An animated image is a sequence of frames that, when displayed in order, create a short looping animation. A GIF image is an example of an animated image format widely used in social media.
Similarly, MOV, MP4, and other movie formats also consist of a sequence of images or frames. Displaying 24 of these frames per second gives movies their portrayal of motion.
Converting animated images and movies to PDF, TIFF, or other formats creates a flip-book-like series of images if you have FFmpeg for Windows installed.
See How To Install FFmpeg on Windows for instructions on installing FFmpeg. Support for this for the following formats is part of Document Conversion Service beginning with version 3.0.031 and works with the following formats:
•*.mpg
•*.mov
•*.mp4
•*.m4v
•*.avi
