I've used similar code. However, in my case, we're thumbnailing arbitrary pdfs, which could be any size -- usually they are US-letter or A4, but there can be poster-sized ones there too. So my question is: How to I tell ghostscript to make the resulting image a given size (say 100x100 or less), or how do I use ghostscript to tell me the size of the pdf at hand, and then I could calculate the DPI myself? Any ideas? To the OP: you don't seem to be specifying the DPI that you want. The default may be OK, but you may want to be explicit: -r150 gives you 150dpi. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Image-SIG maillist - Image-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/image-sig
