And another command-line tool to try is ghostscript. http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/ I used it a long time ago on WinXP (Ghostscript version 8.54) with a script similar to this: on convertPDF2JPEG -- put the path to GhostScript into tEXEpath -- put GIF or JPEG into tIMGformat -- put 300 into tIMGresolution -- put the path to a PDF into tSourcePDFfile -- put the path to your new image file into tTargetFile set the hideConsoleWindows to true -- eliminate CMD pop-up put tEXEpath && "-dPrinted -dQUIET -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=" & tIMGformat \ && "-r" & tIMGresolution & "x" & tIMGresolution && "-sOutputFile=" & quote \ & tTargetFile & quote && quote & tSourcePDFfile & quote && "-c quit" into shellcmd get shell(shellcmd) end convertPDF2JPEG ~Roger _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
