It's documented here, there's also a Windows specific warning . Finally, please follow board rules if you need more help.

Hopefully this plugin is still supported and active.  I've read the thread, verified with my host that both ImageMagick and ghostscript are installed and what their paths are.

Having this information and trying everything I can think of, including changing the position of active plugins and checking file and folder permissions, I can't get this plugin to work.  This is a real bummer since it's exactly what I need.

Any suggestions would be great.

Hi all,

Sorry for not responding and maitaining pluging for sometime. I did some investigations and found out that there are problems with this plugin and the version of convert. The version i use (ImageMagick 6.6.9-6 2011-04-26 on linux) has problems with PDF documents created with abobe version 9 and above. It cannot read the document, causing convert to crash. This again is not logged by plugin.

To test if your system works, enter on commandline : convert <yourpdffile>  -colorspace RGB -geometry 2048 <imagefile>

If file is created then your system is capable of running plugin.

Hi, after some investigation I find a way not only get a good quality of pdf first page but either of "eps" files. I used for it ghostscipt used directly. Only problem is that I don't know how to input it into this plugin.

Code Select Expand

gs -dQUIET -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dJPEGQ=70 -sDEVICE=jpeg -dTextAlphaBits=4 -sOutputFile=$outputfile $inputfile

After run this "gs" generate image from first page. There can be added option

Code Select Expand

-r=WIDTHxHEIGHT

Can any developer help me with replacing imagemagic/conver with this tool? It's placed in /usr/bin

Ok, I menage to change some code and now get error like this:

Code Select Expand

images/thumbs/thumb_pdf.png

This is oryginal code:

Code Select Expand

$cmd = "{$CONFIG['thumbnail_pdf_path']} -q -o $ff_dest_file -sDEVICE=jpeg -dPDFFitPage {$src_file}";
And I replace with this:

Code Select Expand

$cmd = 'gs -dQUIET -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dJPEGQ=70 -sDEVICE=jpeg -dTextAlphaBits=4 -sOutputFile='."{$src_file}".' '.$ff_dest_file;
