gswin32c.exe error when opening a PDF

Post by sandyscott »

When I attempt to use convert on a PDF, an error message appears:

Image

I've tried this with a few different PDFs, some which I've made with Inkscape, and some from other sources, all give the same symptoms.

I've also tried a few different arguments - this dump is from just using it to convert to PNG, but I originally encountered the issue while using threshold.

ImageMagick Version: ImageMagick 6.9.1-9 Q16 x64 2015-07-18 (checksum verified after download)

OS: Windows 7 Home 64 bit

Re: gswin32c.exe error when opening a PDF

Post by dlemstra »

What is the output from: C:/Program Files (x86)/GPLGS/gswin32c.exe -version? I can perfectly convert any PDF file with IM 6.9.1-9 and Ghostscript 9.16
.NET + ImageMagick = Magick.NET https://github.com/dlemstra/Magick.NET, @MagickNET, Donate

C:\Program Files (x86)\GPLGS>gswin32c -version
GPL Ghostscript 8.15 (2004-09-22)
Copyright (C) 2004 artofcode LLC, Benicia, CA. All rights reserved.
Looks quite a older - not sure if it came with the installer, or with some other piece of software.

I've installed the latest 32bit version of GhostScript, and that's fixed the issue.

Thanks for the help,

Sandy

(NB: the standalone GhostScript installer put it in a different directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\gs\gs9.16\bin\, so didn't get rid of the old one, and therefore the command you suggested still gives the output above.
