Cannot convert pdf file to jpg thumbnail
Posted: 2017-11-13T09:55:18-07:00
I am using ImageMagick 6.7.7-10 2017-07-31 Q16 on Ubuntu 14.04, through Wand 0.4.4, Python 3.4.3 and Django 1.11. I am trying to create a jpg thumbnail of a pdf file.
On the command line, I can do this with no errors:
But when I try to use wand on the same image I get this error:
I looked at the delegates.xml file for ImageMagic in /etc, and there are entries for pdf files.
Thanks for any suggestions on how to get this conversion to work.
