An error message during converting any PDF file

Post by Shakin »

Hi, All

I try to convert a PDF file to any graphical format. I keep getting error message during the operation regardless If it is only picture in the pdf file or there is some text there either and what format I try to convert the pdf file into. The error is - " Error: invalidaccess; OffendingCommand: put". I have tried to do some conversion of other formats, into pdf files, as well, and it works.
So, what can the cause of it be?

I am not sure I can help, but please identify your exact command line, what version of IM you are using and what platform.

As a windows user you need Ghostscript to convert PDF files with IM.

It works perfectly now, with Ghostscript installed.
Thank you!
