convert pdf delegate to gs problem

Post by blasto »

hi there,

I've setup ImageMagick 6.5.4-7 on my centos 6.5 server. basically I'll use imagick with pydio file sharing software. However on some pdf files viewer couldn't preview correctly so I wanted to check the process from the command line ( convert b.pdf b.jpg) and found out that I got delegation error of ghostscript stating: "convert: Postscript delegate failed `/home/sroot/b.pdf': No such file or directory" But for another pdf file process completes without errors. Can you check what is wrong with these pdf files. a.pdf gets converted ok b.pdf can not. (gs version 8.70)... any ideas to overcome this issue??

They both convert with no problem for me, IM v6.8.9-0 on Windows 8.1, GS v9.10.

I suggest you upgrade to more recent versions.

thanks snibgo !
it's good to hear that, I think the centos repo holds older versions, I'll try to update manually.

I recall this happening to me with older versions. Indeed, upgrading eliminated the issue.
