converting to pdf

Post by tps800 »

Trying to convert png-files to pdf. As soon as I add option "-rotate 90<" convert starts to generate empty pdf-files:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/convert "${j}" -verbose -gravity center -rotate 90\< -background white +repage -page A4\< PDF:/home/dwdsat/PDF/job-${C}_$( printf '%03d' "${P}" ).pdf
/usr/bin/convert "${j}" -verbose -gravity center -rotate "90<" -background white +repage -page "A4<" PDF:/home/dwdsat/PDF/job-${C}_$( printf '%03d' "${P}" ).pdf
/usr/bin/convert "${j}" -verbose -gravity center -rotate '90<' -background white +repage -page 'A4<' PDF:/home/dwdsat/PDF/job-${C}_$( printf '%03d' "${P}" ).pdf

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/convert "${j}" -verbose -gravity center -rotate '90<' -background white -page A4 PDF:/home/dwdsat/PDF/job-${C}_$( printf '%03d' "${P}" ).pdf
I've tried with and without "+repage", with and without "-page A4", "-page 'A4<'". All the same. Adding "-rotate '90<'" generates empty pdf-files.

Code: Select all

# convert -version

Did convert -version list any Delegates? If not, then you need to install from binary or install all the needed delegates before installing from source.

Try these commands:

convert logo: -rotate "90<" logo1.pdf
convert logo: -rotate "90>" logo2.pdf

Do they work.

They work fine for me on IM 6.9.10.54 Q16 Mac OSX
