Kevin, you are correct and thanks for the point in the right direction. I do have ImageMagick, Unfortunately I don't know much perl. I've tried to get this to work by adding to the filter using action_external_filter with no luck

Perhaps David has an idea about the loop on the mime entities because I don't but are you saying you don't know enough about perl to go anywhere with this information? Here's a starting point with the perl code to convert from tif to pdf assuming you have ImageMagick. As you can see it's simply a matter of reading in a tif and writing out a pdf. The perl API will automatically trigger a PDF write due to the filename. #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use Image::Magick; my ($image, $rv); $image = new Image::Magick; if ($image) { $rv = $image->read("/tmp/pic02376.tif"); warn "$rv" if "$rv"; $rv = $image->Write("/tmp/pic02376.pdf"); warn "$rv" if "$rv"; } > I would like the process to be automatic using imagemagick's convert function _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
