JPG to PDF conversion failing for some files
Posted: 2012-10-14T18:33:55-07:00
I'm running a batch PDF to JPG conversion on Mint Linux using Version: ImageMagick 6.5.7-8 2012-08-17 Q16.
I've tried it using :
as well as using a shell script:
Some of the jpegs get converted, but others create only blank PDF files.
I've tried -debug and get a line like this for each file (same 1083 on each):
The weirdest part is that the fourth time I ran convert it worked for the files it had previously only created blanks for. Since I ran it via a batch file that time, I assumed that some small change I had made to spacing or some such made the difference, so I kept that batch file and tried it with a new set of jpegs. Once again, some were correct, others only became blank PDFs.
All the jpegs I want to convert are documents scanned on the same photocopier. Jpegs from other sources seem to convert fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
I've tried it using :
Code: Select all
mogrify -format pdf *.jpgCode: Select all
for i in `ls *.jpg`; do convert "$i" "$i".pdf;
done
