WIN10-64bit w/IM7.0.8-11Q16x64 & GS9.19: PDFDelegateFailed

[rosros]

In 64-bit Windows 10, with ImageMagick 7.0.8-11 Q16 x64 and GPL Ghostscript 9.19 (64-bit) I can convert pdf to png with gs (gs bin directory is in the path):

>gswin64c -q -dQUIET -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dAlignToPixels=0 -dGridFitTT=2 "-sDEVICE=pngalpha" -dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 "-r72x72" "-sOutputFile=test.png" test.pdf

however magick fails

>magick test.pdf test.png
magick: PDFDelegateFailed `[ghostscript library 9.19] -q -dQUIET -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dAlignToPixels=0 -dGridFitTT=2 "-sDEVICE=pngalpha" -dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 "-r72x72" "-sOutputFile=C:/WINDOWS/TEMP/magick-13872RQEqspuFpc_L%d" "-fC:/WINDOWS/TEMP/magick-13872xbovPp3bVzdm" "-fC:/WINDOWS/TEMP/magick-13872hKFzYKrwnQDt": (null)' @ error/pdf.c/ReadPDFImage/796.

The registry entry "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\GPL Ghostscript\9.19" contains GS_DLL => G:\DTP\gs919\bin\gsdll64.dll and<br/>
GS_LIB => G:\DTP\gs919\bin;G:\DTP\gs919\lib;G:\DTP\gs919\fonts

Is there a solution?

[fmw42]

Either you did not install Ghostscript so that Imagmagick could fine it or the install was bad. When you do

convert -version

or

convert -list configure | grep "DELEGATES"

is gs or glib listed?

Also GS 9.19 is old. You might upgrading to the latest, which I think is GS 9.25.

Also did you install the Ghostscript fonts>

Dear fmw42,
I removed both IM and GS. Installed GS 9.25. Installed IM again.
After restarting WIN10 this is the outcome in my Terminal:

[BTW, in order to avoid problems with MS "convert" (to converts a FAT volume to NTFS), I prefer "magick" over the legacy "convert"; anyhow after making sure that "G:\GRAPHICS\ImageMagick\ImageMagick-7.0.8-Q16-HDRI" is the first entry in my PATH:]

... "-fC:/WINDOWS/TEMP/magick-13872hKFzYKrwnQDt": (null)' @ error/pdf.c/ReadPDFImage/796.

That final "(null)" is wrong. It should be the input file to GS, written by IM.

Perhaps that version of IM has a bug. Or perhaps test.pdf contains something weird. Does this happen with all PDFs, or just that one?

EDIT: And there is a superfluous colon, which suggests IM is confused (yet again) by Windows "C:" etc.

Check that "C:/WINDOWS/TEMP/" exists, and you can create files in there.

I suggest you try:

Code: Select all

set MAGICK_TEMPORARY_PATH=.

... before your command. This will put temporary files in the current directory instead of %TEMP%. Does that cure the problem?

[rosros]

Dear snibgo, I confirm that your solution does work in my system:

c:\test>set MAGICK_TEMPORARY_PATH=.

c:\test>magick test.pdf test.png

c:\test>magick Document.pdf Document.png

c:\test>dir *.png
Volume in drive C is WINDOWS
Volume Serial Number is 623A-26AE

[snibgo]

Good stuff. This is a workaround to what seems to be a bug in IM. IM should handle "C:" at the start of filenames correctly. Perhaps a developer will look at this.

[dlemstra]

Does the folder c:\windows\temp exist on your system? I suspect that you have an incorrect value set for %temp%.

[rosros]

c:\>echo %temp%
C:\WINDOWS\TEMP
c:\>cd temp
c:\TEMP>

C:\WINDOWS\TEMP != c:\TEMP ?

[rosros]

Both directories are there; is this important?

c:\temp>echo %temp%

C:\WINDOWS\TEMP

c:\temp>cd \windows\temp

c:\Windows\Temp>dir

[dlemstra]

It is very important because we are not sure if you are allowed to write inside the c:\windows\temp directory. And can you create a file there? That does not work on my machine and that is probably why imagemagick fails to convert the pdf file when that folder is used as a temporary directory.

The temp folder is also `TEMP=C:\Users\Dirk\AppData\Local\Temp` on my machine. Wonder why this is different on your machine.

[rosros]

I have changed my "TEMP" system environment variable to "C:\TEMP". Now the conversion procedure works:

C:\TEMP>echo %temp%
C:\TEMP

C:\TEMP>cd /test

C:\test>magick test.pdf test.jpg

BTW, it seems that as a normal user I am also allowed to write inside c:\windows\temp

C:\test>cd %systemroot%\temp

C:\Windows\Temp>echo "test test test" > test.txt

C:\Windows\Temp>type test.txt
"test test test"

THANKS.

[dlemstra]

I get the following:

Code: Select all

C:\Users\Dirk>cd C:\Windows\Temp

C:\Windows\Temp>echo "test test test" > test.txt

C:\Windows\Temp>type test.txt
