Works with -alpha remove

What i mean is that i want to extract every page as an single image so that the image looks like the page when i open it with a pdf viewer. like when i take a screenshot from the page.

I cannot open the PDF with a text editor. its a pdf not a text file.

Is there no other way to simply extract the pdf "as they are"?

What works is pdf:use-cropbox=true but i don't understand why. There isn't anything cropped.

When i open the PDF there is no such frame. The Background is white like the test of the page (except the black text). What i want is to output the page as i see it in the PDF.

Hi, i have to extract some page from a pdf file for the company i'm working for to tiff. The command convert -compress zip -density 300x300 +adjoin file.pdf[1] output1.tif results in a tif file with a frame of transparent around the rest of the image. I think this is because of the OCR acrobat did ...

Do you mean the command 'display'? How can i open the image with x11?

You mean the command display? This is not want im searching for.

Other idea. Can i create a little GUI only to edit the options Rotation, crop and autocrop? Wen something is changed IM creates a New file. As you porposed i could open the New files in an extra image viewer. The image viewer should then reload the image every time the image is changed. I think the ...

I'm on ubuntu. Is there no preview Funktion in IM?

Hi, i have a little bit complicated question and i hope i can explain what i want. i have a lot of comic books scanned and want to crop and resize them to be readable on my tablet. at the moment i use xnview with batch mode, but rotation results in a bad text quality and at the moment there is no ...

its my own computer.

nobody set this limits. i never changed this file. this are the settings after installing imagemagic.

what are god settings for my system? i have installed 16GiB RAM.

This reduces the resources needed by IM. You can do one page at a time if want. ok, but this converts only the page 5 to 10. i want the whole pdf. the question is: can i speed up the whole process of converting all pages of a pdf to tif when i run a separate process for each site instead of one ...

yes, you're right. so on ubuntu there was no settings like this because there is nothing more in the xml. i guess image magick first loads all pagesof the pdf to the ram and then converts into images? wouldn't it be better when it loads each page to the ram, then convert, load the next then convert ...

but why do i have so littel values in that file? on ubuntu i had this values (the system had 8gb ram): <!-- <policy domain="resource" name="memory" value="2GiB"/> --> <!-- <policy domain="resource" name="map" value="4GiB"/> --> <!-- <policy domain="resource" name="area" value="1GB ...
