convert PDF to image: Linux and Windows difference

Post by Yulia »

Hello

I have noticed that there is a difference between converting the images using IM running under Linux and running under Windows OS.

Command: convert -density 96x96 -trim file.pdf file.jpeg

I tested with IM 6.2 and 6.3

There are examples:

The quality with Linux is worse -(

Thanks a lot for any help!

The difference will be with Ghostscript, which IM uses to convert PDF and postscript files to a raster image format.
