Hi,

I am using convert to convert multiple jpg images into a single pdf. The pdf file is crearted but the dimension of image in pdf is different from the original image.
I want to keep the original jpg image dimension in the resulting pdf.

What should i do to achive the above?

I am using Fedora 16 and the conver version is
#convert -version

Regards,

PDF is vector format and so I believe it requires you to set a density so that the PDF "image" will match what you want with the JPG

try

convert image.jpg -density XX image.pdf

specify XX as dpi or dpc, you can add -units pixelsperinch or pixelspercentimeter

Great Great Thanks for your help....now pdf is generated with correct image dimensions.

Out of curiosity what density did you use to get the right size? Your question has been asked before on the forum and a similar answer provided, but no one bothered to reply with what density they found that worked.
