Does that file exist?

You seem to be using Windows, where "\" is normally used.

What version of IM and platform are you using? Always provide that when asking questions on this forum, since there are syntax differences.

If Window, then try using windows syntax directories with full paths with \ rather than /

Code: Select all

convert -density 300 pdftoimages\pdf.pdf[1,2,3] pdftoimages\page.jpg

Forward slash / is unix syntax

How much free space do you have in your temp directory, C:\Users\user55\AppData\Local\Temp\ ? Can you write to that directory?

Did you install Ghostscript? It looks like ImageMagick cannot find Ghostscript.
