Convert PDF with font to JPG, annoying horizontal line

[MNukazawa]

I convert PDF with my original font (generated by FontForge) to JPG.
But exported image has annoying horizontal line.

command:
convert -alpha Remove -density 100 -quality 90 -colorspace rgb book_of_RuneAMN_Pro_Fonts_limited.pdf book.jpg

# result
Exported font image has annoying horizontal line.

I do not see any annoying horizontal lines in your JPEG output. I suggest you check your viewing tool. If you think the file has been changed by your hosting service, then check your versions of ghostscript and libjpeg to see that they are current or upgrade Imagemagick.

This command works fine for me on IM 6.9.9.40 Q16 Mac OSX

Code: Select all

convert -density 100 -colorspace sRGB book_of_RuneAMN_Pro_Fonts_limited.pdf[0] -alpha Remove -quality 90 book.jpg

Using

JPG* JPEG rw- Joint Photographic Experts Group JFIF format (90)

and

gs 9.21

Thank you for your reply.

I report is rasterize issue of my original font (RuneAMN).
(Font file is no problem.)
Reproduce is please try page 4. (using "RuneAMN Sans" font)

Code: Select all

convert -density 100 -colorspace sRGB book_of_RuneAMN_Pro_Fonts_limited.pdf[4] -alpha Remove -quality 90 book.jpg

This command works fine for me on IM 6.9.9.40 Q16 Mac OSX and also 6.9.7.4 Q16 . Check your versions of ghostscript and libjpeg as I mentioned above.

My libjpeg is 90. My GS is 9.21. Perhaps upgrade your libjpeg and see if that helps.

[MNukazawa]

Upgrading libjpeg in Ubuntu seems not easy.
I will search for the procedure.

[fmw42]

Can you upgrade your Imagemagick? What is your platform/OS?

I had the same problem - upgrading ghostscript from 9.22 to 9.23 fixed it for me on macOS

Environment is Ubuntu18.04 alpha amd64.

The Ubuntu package contained version 90 libjpeg package, but ImageMagick did not use it.
I have never experienced ImageMagick compilation.
