This issue occurs when the functions in the Excel cells are executed during the conversion. A new flag, "RecalculateOnOpen", has been added to the [EXCEL2PDF] section in KFXConverter.ini. You can use this flag to control the execution of functions in the Excel cells while converting an Excel file.
Flag values
False (default) = The functions in the cells are not executed during the conversion.
True = The functions in the cells are executed. However, user-defined functions are not supported.
Note: If the KFXConverter.ini file already exists and does not contain the "RecalculateOnOpen" parameter in the [EXCEL2PDF] section, do the following:
Open the KFXConverter_Default.ini file in an editor.
Copy the "RecalculateOnOpen" parameter from the [EXCEL2PDF] section.
Paste the parameter into the KFXConverter.ini file under the [EXCEL2PDF] section.
Save and close the KFXConverter.ini file.
1685846 – KIC 2.9 FP 3 / FP 4 – MS_Graph Memory Leak
1685419 – KIC can’t connect to the RightFax server over COM API if secure. TCPIP is enabled on the RightFax server with registry value HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\RighFax\Server\RPCSecure=1
1684125 – Import password protected zip in native format
1677363 – Plug-in produces too many log files which can fill up the disk.
1634696 – Buffer Size for SMTP passwords is too small. Buffer holding of the encoded pasword was too small and resulted in stripping of the password.
1642956 – US dollar symbol changed to UK pound symbol during .xls conversion using the kfxconverter. When an .XLS (Excel 97-2003) file containing “$” symbols was imported into Tungsten Capture via Tungsten Import Connector, all the “$” were converted to “£”.
1647467 – Using MS Graph, emails are not getting polled for shared mailboxes using multiple instance mode. Using MS Graph, Tungsten Import Connector was not able to poll emails from shared mailboxes.
1647674 – MS Graph Connection with Proxy not working.
1654622 – MC_Email handles count increase and ports get exhausted. Message Connector was not closing connections whenever there was error polling an IMAP server. This resulted in ports exhaustion.
1610767 – Conversion fails if attachment in portfolio pdf contains special character.
1634356 – HEIC to PDF conversion results in a very large PDF file.When the attached HEIC image file did not have compression type assigned (that is, “Undefined”), the conversion of such file to PDF resulted in a very large file. To update compression types for input image files, do the following:
Note: Following changes are only applicable to the input images for which no compression type is assigned, that is, compression type value is ‘Undefined’.
- Open the following file in a text editor. C:\Program Files (x86)\tungsten\KIC-ED\MC\Scripts\image2pdf.bat in a text editor.
- Search for the “set ENABLECOMPRESSIONE” string and set its value to YES. For example, set ENABLECOMPRESSION=YES
- Search for the “set CUSTOM_COMPRESSION_TYPE” string and set the compression type. For example, set CUSTOM_COMPRESSION_TYPE=BZIP
Note: You can configure one of the following compression types: None, BZip, Fax, Group4, JPEG, JPEG2000, Lossless, LZW, RLE or Zip.
4 Save and close the image2pdf.bat file.

1611051 – Possibility to see the body of signed email as a body to add an email header. A secure mail is decrypted for virus scan and encrypted, then it get decrypted again by the Exchange server. The body of such a signed email is seen as an attachment to the email and therefore email header could not be generated for such email.
1619939 – Value for KfxRoutingNumber is incorrect for MSGraph import. After switching from EWS to MS Graph, the KfxRoutingNumber field returned a different value for the configured username. Username of a shared mailbox: “domain\usera\userb”. Value returned when using EWS: “domain\usera\userb”. Value returned after swtiching to MS Graph: “usera”
