Hi everyone !

I search on all the web with no results for this question.
I use imagick for transform the first index of a PDF to PNG.

This work very fine but there is difference (colors) between the first index and the PNG (see pics for example)

This image is the first index of the PDF (xxx.pdf)

This image is the png generate by the first index (xxx.png)

As you can see, the color is not the same...
This is my code :

Code: Select all

$im1 = new imagick($url);
$im1->setIteratorIndex(0);
$im1->setImageFormat('jpg');
// $im1->setImageColorSpace(Imagick::COLORSPACE_SRGB);
$im1->writeImage(ABSPATH.'medias/miniature-pdf/miniature-'.strtolower($filename).'-full.png');

(I already tried setImageColorSpace with no good result..)

Any ideas ?
Thanks !

You probably need to set the colorspace before reading the PDF, not after.

Hi snibgo,

Thanks for your response.
What do you mean, when you say before reading the PDF ?

Something like this ?
(This doesn't work..)

Code: Select all

$im1 = new imagick();
$im1->setImageColorSpace(Imagick::COLORSPACE_SRGB);
$im1->readImage($url); 
$im1->setIteratorIndex(0);
$im1->setImageFormat('jpg');
$im1->writeImage(ABSPATH.'medias/miniature-pdf/miniature-'.strtolower($filename).'-full.png');

Yes, that's what I mean. The reason is that rasterizing the PDF is done (by the delegate, Ghostscript) when the PDF is read. If your PDF contains a profile, the conversion to sRGB should be done by using the "-profile" mechanism. I don't use IMagick so can't test this.
