Hi,

I have tried image magic to convert pdf to image format by changing following configuartion in image.ini.append.php


# MIME types that the converter can generate

OutputMIMEList[]
OutputMIMEList[]=image/jpeg
OutputMIMEList[]=image/gif
OutputMIMEList[]=image/png

InputMIMEList[]
InputMIMEList[]=*

ConversionRules[]
ConversionRules[]=application/pdf;image/jpeg
ConversionRules[]=image/gif;image/png
ConversionRules[]=image/x-xpixmap;image/png
ConversionRules[]=*;image/jpeg

But uploaded pdfs using multiupload or datatype file type , not converts pdfs to jpeg.

Image magic is working fine with all other jpeg,png,gif in resizing . Any ideas or insights will be help.

Regards

From the top of my head, i would be surprised if PDF to image conversion could be handled by the image management backends like imagemagick or GD. Did you see this mentioned somewhere Romeo (disclaimer : i am not an expert of the two aforementioned tools).

Cheers,
