It's been awhile since i used it myself, but if imagemagick
supports reading PDF's this might work:

Image pdf = new Image("./test.pdf")
pdf.write("./test.png")

DMagick hasn't been updated in a while so it will probably not
work with newer versions of ImageMagick.
For his personal use you think there's any problem just using
`std.process`?
I mean:
```d
rdmd --eval='import std.process; auto dmd =
execute(["convert", `Screenshot from 2021-09-12 18-14-22.png` ,
`hello.pdf`]);'
```
I don't see why go beyond that if it's guaranteed that the user
has `convert` on their machine
Yes, this is an option although I want to use it as a dub
dependency as part of the project.

samples of how to convert PDF?
