Hi, I can't make usable pdf files from some original maps and I do not understand what goes wrong. I am testing on Windows 7 and GDAL-dev from gisinternals, both 32 and 64 bit. Images are like this one:
http://kartat.kapsi.fi/files/taustakarttasarja/taustakartta_80/5m/etrs89/png/UM5L.png Command can be simplified to gdal_translate -of pdf UM5L.png UM5L.pdf Everything seems to go alright and gdalinfo shows normal information from the pdf. However, if I open the UM5L.pdf file with Acrobat Reader it does not show a map. Everything is just pure white. I planned to check what happens if read the map back from pdf as gdal_translate -of gtiff um5l.pdf um5l.tif After fifteen minutes I estimate that the output will be ready after an hour or so which is all too slow for a Corei7 CPU and 8GB of RAM. I had another try with the same binaries with a small png file (2000x2000 pixels) and conversion into pdf was fast and successful. Is there perhaps something that does not scale up properly when the raster size gets bigger? -Jukka Rahkonen- _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
