App crash when converting big PNG files to PDF

Post by lukas909 »

Hi, I am very new to ImageMagick and i was asked to check an implementation that was already in place on linux, I have been poking around and i could not find much information about what happens when this breaks as the logging for the app is disabled and the OS doesn't seem to detect a problem when this happens, still, hardware wise, i did notice that the is a really big CPU spike and then the conversion stops, leaving behind temp files in the tmp directory.

The conversion works fine for not so large png files.

That is pretty much all that happens, if you ask questions, please consider indicating how to get the answer if it is a very specific topic. Thank you to whoever may read this! :D
