NoDecodeDelegateForThisImageFormat

Post by varunto »

I've used ImageMagick without problems for a while (Ubuntu 10.04). However, I've tried to use Pdfocr (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1456756) to make scanned PDFs searchable and I've got the following ImageMagick error:

Code: Select all

Magick: NoDecodeDelegateForThisImageFormat `1.ppm' @ constitute.c/ReadImage/530
Any ideas on what might be going wrong?
Thanks!

PPM image file format is part of NetPbm and/or PbmPlus image library. You presumably do not have this library installed so IM coder will not be enabled.

Install that library/package and the format should be enabled immediately.
