Horizontal lines in tiff's

Post by mbrugue »

Hi there!
I have a problem converting pdf's to tiff
When I make a convert the result image has some horizontal lines (more density more lines...)
Example:

Code: Select all

convert.exe -density 200x200 c:\020090409165529457.PDF -compress group4 c:\020090409165529457-%d.TIF
This occurs only in some computers...

I didn't found another post talking about this problem...
Has anybody a solution or why is this happen?

Tnks a lot!

Post a URL to your image here. We'll download it and see if we can reproduce the problem.

In this link you can find a .rar with pdf example and the result tiff

In this case, the tiff image have only one horizontal line, but you will see the entire image "moved"

Hope you can help me... :(

The conversion worked as expected (no lines) on each of our computers (Linux, Mac OS X, Windows NT, Windows 2003, Windows Vista). Do you have a similar version of Ghostscript and ImageMagick on each of your computers? We're using ImageMagick 6.5.4-3 and Ghostscript 8.64.

Same versions on 4 different computers
2 works fine in winxp
2 works bad win server2003

ImageMagick 6.5.4-2
GhostScript 8.64 (Also tried 8.63)

We try with command line and php libraries (same result)
I transformed a pdf to tiff directly with GhostScript, and there was no problem!

Code: Select all

gswin32c.exe -q -dQUIET -dPARANOIDSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dEPSCrop -dAlignToPixels=0 -dGridFitTT=0 -sDEVICE=tiffg4 -sOutputFile=myoutputfile.tiff mypdfinputfile.pdf
Is there any possibillity to add a new line in delegates.xml to make this convert directly?

Thks for your time!
Sorry for my english :)
