PHP Converting PDF's to images -dUseCropBox

I'm trying to convert a PDF to an image and I need to make sure that the -dUseCropBox parameter is specified for when calling Ghostscript. Can this be done?

convert "/var/www/vhosts/site.co.uk/httpdocs/uploads/source_pdf/PP4SDpdf.pdf" -resize 500X500 "/var/www/vhosts/site.co.uk/httpdocs/uploads/image_pdf/SaturdayTest.jpg"

It works well but just need to get the Ghostscript par开发者_如何转开发ameter in.


Is it acceptable for you to run Ghostscript directly (instead of having convert call it anyway) ?

I ask, because convert does not do the PDF => JPEG conversion by itself. It calls Ghostscript as its 'delegate' to do the job. So for convert to work you need to have access to a functional Ghostscript installation on that system anyway... .

But how to add custom parameters to converts commandline to pass them through to Ghostscript's commandline isn't easy to figure out. Ghostscript's commandline isn't exactly easy either, but at least it is fully documented at a well-known place (see Use.htm, Devices.htm and Ps2pdf.htm there).

Here is a command that would convert your input PDF to a series of JPEGs (one file for each PDF page). I'm assuming Windows -- for Linux just replace the ^ by \ and gswin32c.exe by gs:

gswin32c.exe ^
  -o "d:/path with spaces/to/output/dir/input_page_%03d.jpeg ^
  -sDEVICE=jpeg ^
  -dJPEQ=95 ^
  -r720 ^
  -g5000x5000 ^
  -dUseCropBox=true ^
  "d:/path/to/input.pdf"

Explanation:

  • -dJPEGQ sets the JPEG quality. Accepts integer values in the range 0..100. Higher values create bigger files... (Ghostscript's default for JPEGQ is set to 75.)
  • -r720 sets a (rather high) resolution of 720dpi. Higher values create bigger files... (Ghostscript's default for its jpeg output device would be 72dpi.)
  • -g5000x5000 gives the file dimension in pixels. (Note: when decreasing the -r... value you MUST also accordingly decrease the -g... value to keep the same dimension in userspace inches or mm.)

You could also add -dPDFFitPage=true if that is useful for you.


The switch for imagemagick (the convert-command) is:

-define pdf:use-cropbox=true
