Hi,
The Problem:
I want to show a preview or the whole PDF content in image form.
I've found this in web: (link)
1. <?php
2. exec(‘command line to run’);
3. ?>
1. <?php
2. exec(‘/path/to/imagemagick’);
3. ?>
1. <?php
2. //the path to the PDF file
3. $strPDF = "my_pdf.pdf";
4.
5. exec("convert \"{$strPDF}[0]\" -colorspace RGB -geometry 200 \"output.gif\"");
6. ?>
1. <?php
2. //the path to the PDF file
3. $strPDF = "my_pdf.pdf";
4.
5. exec("convert \"{$strPDF}\" -colorspace RGB -geometry 200 \"output.jpg\"");
6. ?>
1. <?php
2. //the path to the PDF file
3. $strPDF = "my_pdf.pdf";
4.
5. exec("convert \"{$strPDF}[0]\" -colorspace RGB -geometry 1024 \"output.png\"");
6. ?>
1. <?php
2. //the path to the PDF file
3. $strPDF = "my_pdf.pdf";
4.
5. exec("convert \"{$strPDF}\" -colorspace RGB -geometry 1024 \"output.png\"");
6. ?>
I just don't understand few things..
Questions:
How to instal: ImageMagick and GhostScript using CPanel or FTP ? Can I do do this myself or need to ask server support ?
Where to install, how ???
