Not a direct answer to your question, but I'm puzzled why you can't just use Ghostscript under the GNU AGPL license? (Are you modifying it, and unwilling to release your modified version?)

Hi,

I have been using Ghostscript to convert PDF files (that have been created with PDFlib) to PNG images, but have found that out that we need to a commercial license - and it is outrageously expensive (like $10k/yr minimum!).

So in my search for viable alternatives I came across Poppler (and xpdf). I need to do the conversion on a Linux system (specifically 64bit Amazon Linux/2.8.2). Can I use Poppler for this purpose, and if so how would I go about it?

I'm a web programmer so I'm not much into C++ and those low-level languages. My web languages are PHP and Node.js, and I found this PHP wrapper: https://github.com/php-poppler/php-poppler - but I'm not sure how to install Poppler. Anyone who can help me with that?

Regards,
Allan Jensen
