Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

I have been succesfully converting JPG files to PDF file untill recently. Now all I get is PDF file with a blank page. I have upgraded (and down graded) ImageMagick.

Currently I'm on IM 6.4.8.9-Q8 and GS863w32.

The command line I'm using is a very simple "convert image.jpg image.pdf". No error messages, just a blank page.

Any ideas? I can provide a sample file.

Does

convert -list configure

show gs in the DELEGATES line?

If not, you need to install Ghostscript.

I did have GS load - thanks

The answer was in the JPG files. The creators of these JPG files where failing to include metadata. Don't knoe why that makes a difference, but it did.
