Package: imagemagick Version: 8:6.7.7.10-7 Severity: normal File: /usr/bin/convert
when using `convert` to create a pdf file from a pixel graphic, and the resulting pdf is physically larger than 900000pts, `convert` fails silently by outputting an empty letter-sized pdf. admittedly, creating 300m large pdf files is usually not intended, but can easily happen when taking high-res images (think stitched panoramas, 18000x3000px can be realistic there) and converting them to pdf with the default resolution (`convert DSC_1234-DSC1249.jpg DSC_1234-DSC1249.pdf`). for an easier to reproduce setup, try this: $ convert -size 100x100 xc:white small.png $ convert small.png -density 0.007 small.pdf $ pdfinfo small.pdf [...] Page size: 612 x 792 pts (letter) [...] at resolution 0.008dpi, instead it gives Page size: 900000 x 900000 pts which is expected. if this is a limitation of the output format, please have convert exit with an error (and ideally a message that suggests using a higher `-density`). as a workaround, mechanisms that deal with converting images automatically can set high pixel densities (but must not go too hight, because: $ convert small.png -density 80000000 small.pdf $ pdfinfo small.pdf [...] Page size: 612 x 792 pts (letter) [...] ) -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.12-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages imagemagick depends on: ii hicolor-icon-theme 0.13-1 ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.6-5 ii libc6 2.17-97 ii libfontconfig1 2.11.0-2 ii libfreetype6 2.5.2-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.38.0-1 ii libgomp1 4.8.2-14 ii libice6 2:1.0.8-2 ii libjpeg8 8d-2 ii liblcms2-2 2.2+git20110628-2.3+b1 ii liblqr-1-0 0.4.1-2 ii libltdl7 2.4.2-1.6 ii liblzma5 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2 ii libmagickcore5 8:6.7.7.10-7 ii libmagickwand5 8:6.7.7.10-7 ii libsm6 2:1.2.1-2 ii libtiff5 4.0.3-7 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-1 ii libxext6 2:1.3.2-1 ii libxt6 1:1.1.4-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-1 Versions of packages imagemagick recommends: ii ghostscript 9.05~dfsg-8+b1 ii libmagickcore5-extra 8:6.7.7.10-7 ii netpbm 2:10.0-15+b2 ii ufraw-batch 0.19.2-2 Versions of packages imagemagick suggests: pn autotrace <none> ii cups-bsd [lpr] 1.7.1-2 ii curl 7.34.0-1 pn enscript <none> ii ffmpeg 6:0.8.8-1 ii gimp 2.8.6-1 ii gnuplot 4.6.4-1 pn grads <none> ii groff-base 1.22.2-4 pn hp2xx <none> pn html2ps <none> pn imagemagick-doc <none> pn libwmf-bin <none> ii mplayer 2:1.0~rc4.dfsg1+svn34540-1+b2 pn povray <none> pn radiance <none> ii sane-utils 1.0.24-1.1+b1 ii texlive-binaries [texlive-base-bin] 2013.20130729.30972-2+b2 ii transfig 1:3.2.5.e-1 ii xdg-utils 1.1.0~rc1+git20111210-7 -- no debconf information -- To use raw power is to make yourself infinitely vulnerable to greater powers. -- Bene Gesserit axiom
