Dig deeper into JPedal, Specifically PDFDecoder, I use it every day to
render PDF 's in any size I want.

Subject: Re: [iText-questions] convert PDF to JPEG


PDFBox <- utterly useless when it converts to an image I get smoething that
doesn't even look like my pdf.
JPedal <- for some reason it insists on producing an image which is 1:1
ratio in pixels for each point, so I can't use it because the result is not
the same size as the pdf and is more like a thumbnail...
Multivalent has not been updated since Jan 2006...

Are there no decent libraries to do this? I must say I'm pretty dissapointed
at how hard it is to save a PDF as an image... :(

Not with iText. You need a renderer for that.

JPedal can do this (www.jpedal.org), other renderer libraries probably as
well, but as far as I remember, there are only two that have an open source 

license: JPedal (GPL) and Mutivalent (http://multivalent.sourceforge.net), I
didn't have a look at Multivalent in the last 3 years now, so I don't 

know how well it would work with that).

Hi,



I need to be able to convert PDF to JPEG (because our French division 

refuse to get proper printers that support PDF), is this possible? How 

would I go about it?
