Convert to jpg

[mrclark]

I need to convert a jpg file made on paint.net, to a jpg to pdf. This is for a whole book cover to be uploaded to Kindle, so, a bit more than 2 pages wide. This is not a standard pdf format, so when I convert and upload the PDF, the cover dimensions change too much smaller.
 

KIndle demands the cover be uploaded as a PDF. I definitely got the JPG  dimensions right because Kindle provides a template for the cover.
 

Solution?

Thanks

Hi,

Ghostscript can be used for this https://www.ghostscript.com/download/gsdnld.html.

Here is an example. Download and install Ghostscript and import the attached workflow to FreeFlow Core or create a workflow and place an External Process in it. Then upload the attached batch file to the External Process. The batch file will convert incoming pdf to jpg and save the jpg to folder c:\out\ with the name <filename.pdf>.jpg.

"C:\Program Files\gs\gs9.50\bin\gswin64c.exe" -dNOPAUSE -dNOCACHE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=jpeg -sOutputFile=c:\out\%~nx1.jpg %1

There are other options than jpg. For instance: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/653380/converting-a-pdf-to-png

Hello peeps,

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

We are currently having an issue with the output file getting printed. Output file is a pdf.

Is there a way I can convert this to an image, jpg or png or gif???

I was looking into ImageMagic to do the convert through the external node via a script, has anyone done this before?

Thanks

Nitro PDF to JPG Converter is a top PDF Converter, which can convert PDF to Word, Excel and other image types. PDF files can be converted into JPG, PNG, and TIFF easily using Nitro PDF Converter. However, the drawback of Nitro PDF converter is the inability to convert PDF to BMP and GIF.

Hi,

I haven't used the ImageMagic before, so I do not know whether it's good or not. But I have used the Deli PDF Converter, this tool support converting PDF to many different types of files. In addition, it's free and quick. SO I think you can have a try.

Hope it can help you.

Best Regards.

You can use GhostScript to do this conversion. You should contact your local Xerox Professional Services team and they should be able to share a script that does this.
