Readability of TIFs Converted from PDFs
Posted: 2010-06-01T11:01:57-07:00
I am converting PDFs to TIFs using Convert.exe. The conversion works but the files are not very readable. My workflow starts with an MS Word template that is saved as a PDF, then converted into a TIF via ImageMagick. The source document is simply a white page with black text, no embedded images or strange fonts. I have tried several parameter combinations and changed my font. So far no luck. Here is my command.
Does anyone have any tips or tricks to improve the readability of PDF to TIF conversions? Other formats like PNG and JPG look a bit better, but not good enough.
System Info
ImageMagick Version = 6.6.2-Q16
GhostScript Version = 8.71
OS = Windows 7 x64
Thanks for the help!
