Ghostscript support in windows broken in 6.8.9-2

temp4746 · Post by **temp4746** » 2014-06-04T11:17:08-07:00

Trying to convert a PDF using imagemagick version 6.8.9-2 fails, a ghostscript viewer window pops up briefly and closes and imagemagick prints an "No images defined" error

I'm using Imagemagick 6.8.9-2 and ghostscript 9.14

Using the command:

Code: Select all

convert bla.pdf bla.png

I cannot reproduce your problem on Windows 7 with IM 6.8.9-2 en Ghostscript 9.14. Does this happen for every PDF or does it only happen with a specific PDF? Can you post the output of convert -verbose bla.pdf bla.png in a [ code ] block?

It happens for every PDF I try.

That looks okay, expect for the error of course. Can you post the output of convert -debug all input.pdf output.png in a code block? Are there any special characters in your real user name or is it really 'user'?

  no images defined `test.png'
convert.exe: no images defined `test.png' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3187.

The only special character in my real user name is a capital first letter, hardly special, espcially since Windows is case insensitive when dealing with paths... and I'm seeing Imagemagick passing the paths with the correct case anyhow.

EDIT: I tried using MAGICK_TEMPORARY_PATH in case it doesn't like my temp dir, didn't help.

EDIT 2:
procmon.exe reveals that the actual command line used to run the process is along the lines of:

Code: Select all

"gswin32c.exe" -q -dQUIET -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap_500000000 -dAlignToPixels_0 -dGridFitTT_2 "-sDEVICE_pngalpha" -dTextAlphaBits_4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits_4 "-r72x72"  "-sOutputFile_C:/Users/user/AppData/Local/Temp/magick-1796O357rrGQUtI7%d" "-fC:/Users/user/AppData/Local/Temp/magick-1796IURxjI69Vi89" "-fC:/Users/user/AppData/Local/Temp/magick-1796WtDKKmsiUd0i"

The issue is quite clear, somebody is replacing '=' with '_', which obviously causes Ghostscript to not work.

On another note, why is Imagemagick passing two files into Ghostscript (-f) when I only passed one file to convert?

Thank you for the detailed information. We found the problem and this will be fixed in the next release (6.8.9-3).

The reason it is creating two files is because the coder creates a 'ghostscript control file'. Not sure what this does but it was added by the person who created the coder.
